Kevin Drum, Mother Jones: Yet Another American Military Mission Is Failing

I suppose you have to read the whole thing to get the true flavor of the situation, but here's the latest from Afghanistan:

In September, the Taliban briefly seized Kunduz, the first city to fall since the demise of its regime, prompting the U.S. military to dispatch Special Operations troops and stage airstrikes to help the Afghan security forces retake control.

Now, the insurgents are on the doorsteps of several provincial capitals, applying more pressure on urban areas than in any year of the conflict. The clashes in Helmand have reflected the Taliban strategy that led to the takeover of Kunduz — seizing surrounding districts before moving in on the provincial capital. Already, the Taliban are in the enclave of Babaji, within the borders of Helmand's capital, Lashkar Gah.

....Afghans, including senior military officials, no longer even pretend that they can fight the Taliban effectively on their own. "When the foreigners were here, we had plenty of facilities and equipment," said 1st Lt. Naseer Ahmad Sahel, 30, a civil-order police company commander who was wounded last month in a firefight in Marja. "There were 100 cameras overlooking Marja alone."

Faqir, the commander of the 215th Corps, said, "We don't have the air support that we should have."

There isn't a single country from Libya to Afghanistan where American military intervention has succeeded, nor a single country where American military training has been anything but a disaster. We can't do counterinsurgency on our own, and the troops we've tried to train are too divided in their loyalties to be effective.

WNU Editor: If there ever was a time for a reassessment of U.S. foreign/military/war strategy and policy .... it is now. Unfortunately .... the American political class is more focused on the 2016 election cycle than on the growing military and political disasters that are occurring in multiple locations right now as a result of U.S. action or policy.

KEEP SCROLLING TO THE END ...WE STILL GOT LOTS MORE .......

Revenge is a Poison meant for others, which we end up swallowing ourselves. Vengence is a Dark Light that blinds all who seek it. Don’t argue with Idiots.. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.
