The Afghan war, if the current agreement goes through will have lasted 40 years and 6 months. From the Soviet invasion on Christmas Day 1979---Christmas Day 2019, and 6 months more .....4 months before the 2020 Presidential elections.
3 million plus Afghans have died from these wars; creation of massive disruption and refugee crisis into Europe, Australia, Pakistan and Iran.
Afghan's resisted Alexander, there was a cost.
Afghan's resisted Chinghis Khan, there was a cost and genocide to the North of the Hindu Kush...from 1219 AD.
Afghan's resisted the British Empire 1839-1947, and there was a cost.
Afghan's resisted the Soviet Empire 1979-1989, and there was a very heavy cost.
The USA Empire has through subterfuge and stealth invited itself into a very weak war torn, war weary Afghanistan, and further it has even managed through a sophisticated way and the services of Pakistan, CONTROLLED the Afghan opposition.....creating the Taliban in 1994.
The USA has also shared its Boone/burden by forcing the hapless irrelevant NATO into the country.
Afghan's by default don't become hardline Sunni Wahabi Islamist's every time foreign invaders enter their country, but this is the result of the CIA working with Pakistan to MANAGE THE COUNTRY, and then use the Taliban as 'Controlled Opposition' who at one time after all whined and dined in America.
The American/NATO military withdrawal is what ordinary Afghans want (not the puppet Afghan government and corrupt Afghan warlords managed by the Deep State)
This is what the majority of American people want (not the American Deep State, for whom Afghanistan for 40 years was a playground of mischief and off the books misadventure....involving 9/11, narcotics into America and finally, Pentagon and reconstruction funds misappropriation-gravy train and Pork belly spending for the Deep State)
The 40 year Afghan War was initiated in its conception in Londonistan by the Rothschilds of London in the 1970's, and further enunciated through the Bilderberg Group and American Globalists, and finally the Carter administration (1977--81).
It had a variety of names....to suit the flavor of peccadilloes and neuroses of various Globalist groups.
'Clash of Civilization'
'Arc of Crisis'
'The Bear Trap'---American revenge of Soviet support for Vietnam, and though St Jimmy though on the surface was proclaiming Peace and Detente with the Soviet Union, the real policy was to bankrupt the Soviet Union through MILITARY OVERSPENDING......which reached its peak of 17% of GDP by 1986.
Corrupt inept 'Pizza' Gorbachev, although correctly identified the malaise of where all this was going for the Soviet Union, lacked the WILL and EFFICIENCY to solve the problem. (1985--1991). He certainly had the mandate from the Deep State and especially the KGB, but he didn't have the TEAM (There is only so much one man can do with a vast Empire WITH ALL ITS PROBLEMS)........and more importantly the IMPLEMENTATION of the best policies.
'Pizza' Gorbachev was revolutionary in the way he communicated with the Soviet people, with extensive visits to various parts of the Empire meeting and greeting ordinary people, with full state media coverage. BUT this communication of ideas with the plebs is useful only up to a point.
Also very important/ AND PROBABLY MORE IMPORTANT IS the effective implementation of the best policies.
President Trumps BEST POLICIES and most popular policies, over which he gives repeated speeches are instinctively blocked by the GLOBALISTS. Thus his most popular voter getting policies are blocked.
Now that his ADMINISTRATION has been in power for 2 years, perhaps he can focus more on ADMINISTRATION AND EFFECTIVE IMPLEMENTATION OF POLICIES by stealth.
BUT, on the other hand those popular policies which are HIGHLY COMPLEX and require DNC COOPERATION...such as Health care...he can publicly flog that dead horse, and blame the failure on the uncooperative DNC....then seek to address it in the second term.
The Wall can be completed before 2020, using the black off the books budget of the Security State, but highlight and blame the DNC along the way for obfuscating and delaying it.
