Two more quotes from the US Investigation :
"The interviews, through an extensive array of voices, bring into sharp relief the core failings of the war that persist to this day. They underscore how three presidents — George W. Bush, Barack Obama and Donald Trump — and their military commanders have been unable to deliver on their promises to prevail in Afghanistan."
"Several of those interviewed described explicit and sustained efforts by the U.S. government to deliberately mislead the public. They said it was common at military headquarters in Kabul — and at the White House — to distort statistics to make it appear the United States was winning the war when that was not the case."
Given all the Casualties incurred and the Billions of dollars wasted, the whole situation is actually quite Damning ❗

In Rwanda and Bosnia, the Canadians had to sit back and watch atrocities take place because of the UN dictated "Rules of Engagement". Of course our glorious leader can't wait to sit at the table with them .
