yeah, so many lives affected and for what really?
Was he wrong, really? What did we accomplish in Afghanistan? The Taliban’s back in charge, after all. The whole thing was a waste.
To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand waging war for 20 years to replace the Taliban with the Taliban.

Georgia (the country) sent troops to the Afghanistan and Iraq wars
Owned
Didn’t Ukraine send troops and suffer casualties.. I seem to recall American troops saying they did.
You’re allowed to dislike Trump and also agree that he’s correct here – people died in Afghanistan for nothing other than profits.
The war was from 2001 through 2021. Not simply 2008. What a random year to pick.
Reminder Rump called his own soldiers “Suckers”.
Upvote this to the moon.
Everyone yapping about Taliban doesn’t realize it was more about Al-Qaida than Taliban. Quick to forget that the only reason the US went in was because Taliban didn’t hand over Al-Qaida leadership. It was never about overthrowing the Taliban. That just happened to be a side quest so the area wouldn’t be a safe haven for extremists.
I grew up in a very impoverished part of the UK so a lot of lads signed up for the army because there was no way out of the estates otherwise. I know a few lads that only came back physically, who they were was left in Afghan. They were 18 year olds being shipped off after being promised a future.
Fuck America.
It was an attempt at implementing the Shock Doctrine, thankfully the Afghans are unfathomably tough mother fuckers and managed to drive off the jackbooted thugs.
We lost 10 Kiwis in Afghanistan.
Iceland and Greece were ahead of their time.
Not nothing, remember, the dollars the American MEC made with these wars!
Nepalese Gurkha in the British military have also died in Afghanistan, though we are not NATO members.
Per Million inhabitants, UK’s casualties are heavier that the US’s ones. (8.3 vs 7.7 dead per million inhabitants).
TIL Albania is NATO
Trump: “Suckers”
So almost a third of all causalties in Afghanistan were outside of the US.
What a fucking dipshit.
It pains me to say this, but it was for nothing.
Completely avoidable.
Are these the NATO members that never did anything for America according to trump?
show the map if nato didn’t exist and europe had to fight other imperialist powers on their own.
Is this casualties or fatalities? Title says „died“ but the legend says „casualties.“ Those aren’t the same thing.
Europeans following the imperialist adventures from the USA, i hope today you have learned ypur lesson.
Can we get a map for the Iraq war?
I love the part when Trump talked sh… about NATO when the USA was the ONLY country EVER to invoke article # 5 after 9/11. I mean, the nerve of it all…!
Yeah but the military industrial complex is booming..
Every cloud… Silver lining and all that?
Who was it that originally funded the Taliban and what was the purpose?
Oh yeah, it was the USA. They funded and armed the Taliban. Who was friends with the Bin Laden’s? Oh, yeah, it is the Bush family. Who was president of USA for the Afghanistan war? Oh yeah it was Bush.
Who missed his only day of work coincidentally when on 9/11? Howard Lutnick, neighbour to Jeffrey Epstein.
What were the per capita numbers?
This is over the full „war“ not just 2008. Point remains, title is misleading
Pretty much
Yes, obviously it was bad that they did this, but that doesn’t give Trump the right to threaten to invade any of them.
That one Belgian guy probably fell of the stairs when exiting the plane 🤧
