This is just proof why the rest of the world hates us. We go into Afghanistan and convince people to help us by being interpreters and serving other duties which put them at direct risk from Taliban retaliation. We tell them not to worry, we will defeat the Taliban and bring these allies and their families to America, once we have accomplished our mission. Well, instead we pull out of the country, break our promises about bringing these allies to America and in just about a week, the Taliban has seized the most of the country. We basically left most of these people there to die. They help us and we stab them in the back. This kind of behavior is what created the Taliban in the first place. I love this country, but I can see why many foreigners hate us. We tend to look at the United States with a limited view. If you look at the big picture, things aren't so rosy. We do what benefits us and sometimes that means lying and manipulation. It's not pretty, but freedom and luxury as we have it, comes at a price.
