Hegseth reflects on his time in Afghanistan: The operation was doomed to fail
Think about it, The US of A has not WON a war since 1945!!!
We committed and lost troops in Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan and several other small wars since 1945, but what have we won??????????? What have we gained??????????? At what price???????
I am not against standing up to the "BAD GUYS", but let's get something for those lost lives and dollars!!!!!
In most of these cases, we did not even get rid of the "BAD GUYS"!!!! So, WHY?????????
One would almost think the sole purpose of entering these wars was profit by the war industry.
Frankly US has always had the resources to win these wars but unclear "rules of engagement" and "objectives" have cost us dearly in human lives all around. If the US policy was to actually win wars they'd just go in with maximum strategic force, nail the enemy's leaders and leave, allowing the country of the war to sort its own politics out afterwards. Just NAIL IT up front, down and dirty, as Trump did in Iran when he took out Soleimani.
@toronto_Georgia Exactly.
@toronto_Georgia Can you even imagine what the US of A would look like if we laid claim to every square foot of soil that American Blood was spilled on, TO FREE NON-CITZENS ???????????????
WE are the BAD guys, YA RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@Serg97 Frankly, the powers running this corporation ARE bad. The soldiers sent to fight and die are the good guys. I know some turn when they really understand the BS but most are altruistic and filled with valor
