Don't buy the malarkey the US is leaving Afghanistan in 14 months. The peace deal just signed didn't even include the quasi-legitimate US puppet Afghan government, just the US and the real Afghan rulers the Taliban. It calls for withdrawing just 4,400 of the 13,000 US soldiers defiling that hapless country for the past 19 years, sending over a hundred thousand to an early and needless death, including over 3,000 US and coalition troops. If the Taliban and our Afghan puppets comply with all US demands, we've promised to be completely out in 14 months.
Won’t happen. The US has too much invested in Afghanistan besides those 3,000 dead soldiers and over $1 trillion. There is fabulous mineral wealth under the ground. There are pipeline routes above those same grounds. There is Afghanistan’s geopolitical importance in the region. That’s three strikes for staying forever.
We’ve already said we will monitor Taliban compliance closely. If they launch any attacks against our puppet government, allow any US designated bad guys to reform there, or not cooperate with our puppet Afghan government to create a stable government, we reserve the right to halt the excruciatingly slow withdrawal and open fire again.
It took but 48 hours for the non-consulted Afghan government to balk, stating they weren’t releasing the 5,000 Taliban prisoners that were scheduled to kick off the agreement.
That’s why we call it perpetual war, now being fought by US soldiers who were babies, or possibly not even born when we launched it 19 years ago.
