#3 Forget nation building. Level every place that shelters terrorists. Let others do (and pay for) rebuilding.

Not that there is much to rebuild in Afghanistan.

#6 Who bets that oil will be discovered shortly and US troops will be back, as invaders this time.
Or possibly a Russian plot that requires a regime change operation. Hey, it worked well in other countries.
it makes a lot more sense if you view the deep state as a supranational organization that runs the US military for its own goals. The American people are just a hostile occupied population, like Germany after WW2.

#7 There is oil and natural resources in Afghanistan. That is why the CCP is there. We were just there to expend our wealth for no return.
