    You’ll notice I not once said the us supported anything either way.

    I pointed out the truth of the matter, whichever side the major global powers want to win will win.

            A continued military presence in the area and reason to keep the military industrial complex spun up. Same reason for basically every intervention/conflict/war since the American revolution in the case of the us.

                In both cases because they’re wildly unpopular and in the case of Afghanistan because it started the war on terrors ability to strike anywhere anytime. Make no mistake the us is still in the area and droning with impunity.
