Robert Reich - We had no exit strategy from Afghanistan when we went in in 2001 and no exit strategy when we exited in 2021.
Also from Reich:
Since
George W. Bush led us into Afghanistan in 2001: over 241,000 dead
(including at least 2,400 American service members, 73,000 Afghan
civilians, 78,000 Afghan military and police, 84,000 opposition
fighters).
Over $2 trillion in US spending.
What if anything did we learn?

What we learned is that Afghanistan is the graveyard of empires. What we shoiuld have learned is that trying to be an empire is totally stupid, and that we have never been able to create an army for a puppet government.
