U.S.S.R., Pretty clear mission, kill anyone who gets in our (their) way, 1979-1989, 100,000 troops from all services, no ROE, sent home packing,.
U.S.A., Get Bin Laden and kill enemy harboring him. Mission success, but then ...
Now what was that number again? 3,000, with a far more restrictive ROE than the Soviets and we are going to "win"? Who is this for?

Afghanistan is an unwinnable quagmire we never should have gone into. Mattis is fooling himself and everyone else by saying he can win it. We need to find a way to get out already, and stop making things worse.

So when we need to kill the Taliban in the Pakistan tribal areas period Pakistan and Afghanistan is this an artificial border put by the British in 1913 when the whole clan is spread on both sides of the dividing line and there is a sanctuary and you have to blame part of it to the isi internal security which some elements I believe are sympathetic to the Taliban and will protect them. We will leave Pakistan's help in eliminating there's no man's land or we need to go in there with special forces and Kick-Ass to Kill Them All.
