Afghanistan IP: 27.2.143.116 Posted on 4/9/2021 at 10:19:51 PM by Bob Stephens
Afghanistan was no different to Vietnam. They welcomed America and other countries, we fought alongside them and then we left them! I expected the Taliban to take over the country again, bút not as quickly as they đid. I expect that Pakistan would have had a vast reduction recently in population, with Taliban members returning to Afghanistan again. I think now that the lesson to be learnt by America and other countries, is to stay át home and avoid future conflicts like this. Replies:
