.@mehdirhasan: Why should thousands of US troops stay in Afghanistan indefinitely, or even a few more months, to fight an unwinnable war with the Taliban on behalf of people who aren't interested in fighting it? @EliLake: Because a stalemate is preferable to a Taliban takeover.

Mehdi: "Why should we believe [the generals] when they now try and corner a fourth president into staying for 'just a few more years! Victory is just around the corner!'?" Eli: "Well, I didn't say victory. I said stalemate."

Mehdi: “Just to be clear for our viewers, Eli: Were you saying that we should be there for another 20 years, or for how long?” Eli: “However long it takes...”

Mehdi is hilarious! Genocide is okay. As long as whatever it is da Joos aren't involved. Hypocrite. The US removed their air support, cancelled its contract with the company servicing their aircraft, cut off intel to Afghan forces. Dick.

We all get that by now that Biden bungled big time on that but now let’s focus on Trump and Pompeo deal with Taleban and what they discussed as a deal

It was all planned. Pompeo's Instagram, planning the future with the Taliban. instagram.com/p/CFCacxxA83O/…

? Not sure I agree with that statement. The Afghan Army quit and let the scene. What did they know. The President definitely had his planned escape well in advance.

Stalemate? What stalemate. Please. Overcome hubris to admit it didn’t work out so time to get out.

A stalemate would probably have been cheaper and less dangerous.

Why is it an unwinnable war? Why can't we fight to win?
