Does anyome changed their mind about the Afghan War?

I asked because it was widely supported at the time of the invasion.

Have you changed your mind on this? If so, why? Do you think it could ever have worked out and what do you think would have been a good outcome? Do you feel you were lied to?

Please keep the Trump vrs Biden stuff off the thread because it's not relevent to my question. Thanks.

Not at all. I supported it at the start, and stopped when the objective changed and we forgot why we were there. I support ending the war, but this is the stupidest and most deadly way possible

@PrivateHell This is what leaving when you lost is like, man - it's always going to be chaotic and dangerous.

@QuixoticSoul bullshit. Cheap justifications and excuses won't cover up the fact this was a total cluster fuck. Yes, there was going to be losses. That was no reason to magnify them.

Remove the civilians and support, then the equipment and weapons, then pull the troops. Even a trained monkey could have grasped this. But apparently that was too much to expect from Biden.
