When the withdraw became a route..... and what happens with this defeat to AQ? Will it now be embolden to directly attack the US again? Some hold the view that a single campaign lost does not produce a disastrous order of effects... and those are the same ones who have not been prepping for when the day came.

If the Afghan government does not get a handle on the security situation and finds a way to regain control of the north, its tenure may well be measured in weeks or months.

I firmly believe for Democratic Afghanistan to survive they need these three components:
- Legitimate government.
- Passion of the people.
- Military acumen.

If you want to address why they've attacked us, you need to address our relationship with Israel.

Was that in reference to Hezbullah - which is the lead on the Anti-Israel terror organizations - instead of Al Queda in stating where to address relationships to the Why of 9-11. It was Saudi Arabia and our relations there - and our stationing forces there that was the fixation in AQ and the attacks elsewhere that lead up to their attack in the USA.
To trace it all together - one can do with Jihadi ideology - and include Israel into it by the pieces laid down by the Grand Mufti in the 1940s. That was a critical cornerstone of the ideology that was built on. Best read on the whole of it is "The Looming Tower" ---
