    I think it's really important to remind Americans that America and its allies lost the war in Afghanistan.

    Don't let Americans forget.

    TL;DR history: America was attacked on 9/11. US demanded the head of Bin Laden. US invaded Afghanistan with a coalition of the west. US fought the war for 20 years. Taliban back in power a few days later.

    America lost the war in Afghanistan. 9/11 was never avenged. :(

    • you forgot that the taliban offered the US bin laden, but the US rejected the offer and went to war anyway.colin_s
    • Not quite. They offered bin Laden to the Org of Islamic Cooperation for trial. The US is not even a member of the OIC.

    • And they also suggested a "third country" that the US could never pressure... Do not for a second pretend that the Taliban are the good guys here

    • The point is that no matter the cause or intent, America lost the war.
