Because being ruthless worked so well for the Russians.

i said to isolate or change them because our only other option would be to wipe them out. your reading comprehension fails

or i should say you read what you want to read because you don't like the truth.

The Russians in Afghanistan were an occupying army. They had the same problems the US is having. The US knows that very well because the US was indirectly involved.

Newt's comment is dumb and this entire occupation is dumb. Recent history taught us that holding the region is a strategic nightmare and more or less pointless, but here we are making the same mistakes the Russians did.

1 - No, leave them right where they are.

2 - Acceptable = not exporting terrorists with explosives to our shores.

Stop purposely misunderstanding.
