That was last night, close 12 hours old, they are definitely dead by now or may wish they were

The Brits do have a way of telling you you're an idiot and you don't even realize it. Lol
The war in Afghanistan has been declared officially over. The last U.S aircraft has left and is almost out of Afghanistan air space.
Correct me if I'm wrong but I think Vietnam was the only other war that we officially lost.

We didn't lose the "war" in Afghanistan because we never were at war with them. Our mission was to destroy Al Qaeda and to get Osama bin Laden. Part of that involved fighting the Taliban since they harbored him and his ilk. We accomplished the mission.
The problem is leaving the region was all done wrong. There was a clear plan in place that the current regime chose to ignore and do it by September 11 solely for political reasons. Thus what the puppet that you voted for got us to this.
Viet Nam was a Policing Action.

Technically we didn't lose it but we didn't win it either. I read something the other day that was explaining the difference between Vietnam and Afghanistan in regards to winning and losing and that's how it was described.
Also, it was officially a conflict, not a war, because Congress never declared it as such.
Search for Blackhawk on Twitter and see what Joe Biden did.

Not sure how else to read this whole ordeal other than that Biden is severely compromised. Mentally or perhaps otherwise.

Nobody ever "wins" a war, one side just loses less.
For me, the definition of war is sending forces into battle. What that action is called (for political reasons) on a piece of paper is meaningless.

Well said.
We got bin Laden and everyone else who was part of al Qaeda in 2001.
They got their country back and we can only hope their new generation isn't as evil as their previous one.
So we both gained and lost things, but yeah, no one "won".

It's an impeachable offence to interfere with an NHL trade. Dylan Strome should be allowed to chose a new team without Biden influencing the decisions. Those DemocRATS!!!! grrrrrrr argggggg
