The afghans are descendants of every invading army that has marched through that part of asia since the beginning of time.
These people are born and breed to fight.

We shouldn't be trying to change them.
All we should of done was remove the heads of state from that particular Taliban regime and have maybe a small military base to hunt terrorist that are living in the region.
The Taliban is the government those people want otherwise it wouldn't be able to stay in power we don't have the right to tell them how to govern themselves. We did have the right to remove those particular leaders because they allowed a threat to our country to be staged on their soil. Those people are long since gone.
The terrorist I'm of the feeling that a military base in some remote area looking for terrorist can be achieved without waging war or being intrusive to the people of that region. Maybe I am wrong.
The more we meddle with their affairs the more they will resist us. Because it is human nature not to want to be told what to do especially by people whom you don't respect. They will never respect us because they view us as infidels.

He is still a smart idiot
Do you think the Greeks under Alexander weren't ruthless enough? Afghanistan has long been easy to take, impossible to hold.
The proximate problem is what we are doing in Afghanistan now. The root cause of the problem is a lack of historical understanding when we went in. If Newt hadn't been been so busy being the highest paid "historian" for bankers he might have served the country instead of his bank account.

I think we should just park a carrier group off their coast and patrol the entire country with drones.
If we see poppies being cultivated -- boom.
If we see terrorist training camps -- boom.
