In Reply to: Book by Afghanistan CIA chief says its hopeless posted by Jay on August 12, 2015 at 14:08:59:
: A new book by the former CIA station chief in Afghanistan, Robert L. Grenier, “88 Days to Kandahar: A CIA Diary,” basically says we did everything wrong there, and the only hope for the future is a permanent US military presence in the country (and that means forever).
Didn't we already know is was all a mistake from the beginning? Didn't we already know we are now in a hopeless situation? The invasion served no purpose except to help keep all the "intelligence" agents from being fired and keep Bush from being impeached. It created a great recruiting tool for extremists.
