you DO know that Osama bin Laden was killed in Pakistan right? You know, the failed state of Pakistan , the terrorist state, that the US keeps propped up? not Afghanistan.
And the US stayed in Afghanistan for 20 years, well after the death of Osama. because it was profitable to do so.

I dont see Russia or China traveling to the far side of the world to wage wars.


it wasnt profitable to sit in Afghanistan for 20 years, but USA have given people there the smell of freedom, and it was a difficult decision for USA politicians to leave those people to a Taliban occupation again.
Especially women have little rights under taliban. Imagine a taliban movement rises in Ireland, and you are an irish woman who like their rights to education and other human rights, wouldnt you like USA to stay and defend you from taliban? So that you dont have to wear burkas, have less rights than males etc?
So USA kept pumping the money there for 20 years, when they finally gave up :(

Do you ask about Afghanistan invasion?
From the U.S. perspective in 2001:

The U.S. was attacked on 9/11 by al-Qaeda.

The Taliban regime in Afghanistan was giving safe haven to Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda.

The U.S. demanded the Taliban hand over bin Laden — the Taliban refused.

So, under international law (specifically the right to self-defense under Article 51 of the UN Charter), the U.S. argued that invading Afghanistan was justified to eliminate the terrorist threat.

From a moral perspective:

Many people (even internationally) saw the initial invasion as more justified than, for example, the later invasion of Iraq.

The idea was: dismantle al-Qaeda, remove the Taliban, stop Afghanistan from being a terrorist hub.

That was the right thing to do. Didnt really work as intended, Talibans came back to power, but intentions were proper.

Are you aware that you live in some kind of Russia/China/whatever information bubble? They make you think bad about USA/west world.
Sure we all aint perfect, but we are much much better than Russia/China.


Invasion of Afghanistan was sanctioned by United Nations Secuirty Council and justified in the eyes of international community. Russia was a supporter of the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan in 2001, giving approval in UNSC and for Washington to use bases in Central Asia, and Russian supply routes to help equip U.S. forces in Afghanistan.

Polish “adventures” that caused millions of refugees and a million dead - were not sanctioned by anyone and unjustifiable in their cruelty and how much suffering they caused.

If you believe in living in a disinformation bubble - you can try arguing with facts instead of emotions.

I don’t rely on GPT, but I regularly travel between all of these countries you mentioned - I see it all with my own eyes, I have dinners and talk to people who do business, raise kids and are able to make their thoughts coherent and structured across US, UK, RU, Russia, Israel, MENA and China without the use of a hallucinating GPT.

This contrasts with your posts above as you seem to have fallen deep into Polish disinformation bubble that is preparing you for another illegal war to embark on that will leave millions dead and tens of millions as refugees.

It says something if child soldiering is a-okay but nazi child soldiering isn't


as a kid I liked to play being a soldier. I used to watch "the a-team" and then roleplay it after. Children like to play adult roles - soldier, policeman, firefighter.
And if we adults move them out of their computers, and we tell them how to stay fit, its all win for everybody.
its important to teach kids good habits, and to prepare them for adult life. And living in Ukraine, you sure need to have many soldiers, even if a peace is signed Russia wont just disappear.
Doesnt mean that these kids will actually fight against the invaders.
Anyway children fighting is controversial.
I mean: they could be killed by Russians if Russians win, so maybe children fighting is less evil than children being murdered? difficult topics really, not an easy and obvious solution.

There are no riddles. I’m talking about common knowledge.

checked you out, you are a member of the same guild as Russian's Norlander, and your guild rank is written in cyrylics.
I guess that partially explains why you are pro-Russian and anti-American.

Took you 17 years to notice. How’s that relevant though? Are you not able to argue facts on merits and need to resort to ad hominem?

some days your hopeless! you do not have to go to war with someone just because they have a different world view.
if you have a house and garden you should take care of it and not try to steal someone else's garden. or, to make this post topic, you should not invite people of ill intent into your house just because they dont like your ex husband.
