From the Vietnam war to the Afghanistan war mirrors only its self from Alexander the Great to all of the invaders, the French, the British the Russians and the Americans.
All failed, as those invaders do not know how to plan around the Pushtin tribesmen.
They all failed the creed of warriors “ know you enemy”. The Pushtin’s creed is hurt one and you hurt all.
All is 40 million. All of the invaders didn’t know how many they were fighting. Bullets don’t work but bribery does.
The Americans were the best equipped for Afghanistan but even today failed to realise it.
After the American Civil War there were carpetbaggers and they would have worked well in Afghanistan.
Hey, look back as we must ask just how sloppy are the Americans ?
Well at the end of WW1 they captured a German 88 mm cannon and placed it in storage in the Aberdeen proving ground.
The Germans reintroduced the 88 in WW2 a devastating weapon.
After the end of WW2 the Americans discovered that 88 untouched in storage.
Who knows how many Americans were killed by the German 88s.
What's next on this list of sillyness?
Gad, let's hope they get it right soon and regain they're superiority!
