But he's not even doing that. The previous regimes are still left ruling the country.

Once Osama Bin Laden was dead it was only a matter of time before we were going to lose the war in Afghanistan. The bloodlust in the wake of Sept 11th evaporated once the perpetrators were dead.

The crazy part is *every* high income developed nation has that same issue. The difference is our power military seduces our heads of state in ways that countries with weaker armies dont have to deal with.

Americans too comfortable to be motivated to win bullshit wars. Most Americans gotta be *pissed* and out for blood for there to a chance to win. All the advanced weapons in the world aint enough if the public aint with it.

The achillies heel of US military power is the geography (protected by two oceans) and relatively high standard of living for Americans means almost every country we are likely to fight has a greater stomach for war than we do. So any war that the US cant win within a month we'll end up losing.

Also they know the war is unpopular so they just have to last long enough for US politics to play out and they win.

They are gonna force the US and Israel into a war of attrition with missiles and drones betting that it can produce its way cheaper missiles faster than the US can replenish its expensive ones by launching them more places than can be defended.

If someone told me I could instantly have all my debt wiped to zero exchange for a credit score of 1 I'd take that with zero hesitation lol.

There are soooooo many ways for a man to demonstrate bravery, discipline, endurance, class, good judgment etc before you even *get* to being prepared for hypothetical violence with just normal, everyday shit.

Men spend so much time fantasizing about improbable, dire situations where we must be brave or protect someone that we drop the ball on the normal, everyday things that require bravery, discipline etc. You got all the guns to protect against a hypothetical intruder but wont vote for women's rights.

Bravery is not the absence of fear. Its ability to do what the fuck you have to do *despite* being afraid.
