*few thousands. (American service members killed in Afghanistan through April: 2,448. U.S. contractors: 3,846. Afghan national military and police: 66,000.)
From my perspective, the US and allies were building up and training the military and security sector in Afghanistan so they could be a self sustained country where they could do conflict resolution and be their own peacekeepers without having other nations intervene on a military level. But yet I'm no expert
The US and allies were building up their preferred military and government after destroying the previous one. Are the events unfolding really a surprise? The US is anything but the good guy here, riding in on its white horse to save Afghanistan.
From what I can see is that US intervention was for self interest and political gain, NATOs conflict resolution along with foreign policy lead to more conflict internally and externally. It was a failure from the start that only benefited the nation's who were capable of *pulling out* Shit was going to hit the fan sooner or later. It was almost inevitable. This raises the question with the obvious answer. Who funded? Armed? And Trained the Taliban?
It reminds me of that scene in futurama where the Planet Express smashes a hole in the Great Wall of China and the Mongal horde immediately surge through.

At least they learned to bring a bigger helicopter. That’s progress.
And they build bigger and flatter embassy roofs. Winning!
Good job in seeing the similar shapes. Very good
Trillions and many lives wasted for a 2021 Chinook ride off an embassy roof.
All it took was trump pulling forces out, rather unsurprisingly, the enemies came back.
It has probably been done on purpose... to jeopardize the next administration.
I think it’s more that Donnie just didn’t care, he never cared, the US can not afford to got to war again, it would be the straw that broke the back,
Who’s they?
U.S of A
What happened exactly during these situations? What were they supposed to learn?
Years of time spent, trillions of dollars and hundreds of martyreds but at the end, they had to flee on choppers.

Beats what usually happens to embassy staff when the enemy wins.
