Why did NATO and the U.N. destroy all the good work America did in Afghanistan?

Question

The United States Military did an amazing job and the UN is being a big liberal company over there.

Answer 1

Kofi is gone so maybe the new guy from South Korea will bring back some dignity to the UN.

Answer 2

I do so wish people would do a little homework instead of regurgitaing what they've heard.

The Taliban continued to attack U.S. troops throughout 2005 and 2006—the latter becoming the deadliest year for U.S. troops since the war ended in 2001. In 2004 and 2005, American troop levels in Afghanistan had gradually increased to nearly 18,000 from a low of 10,000. Throughout the spring of 2006, Taliban militants—by then a force of several thousand—infiltrated southern Afghanistan, terrorizing local villagers and attacking Afghan and U.S. troops. In May and June, Operation Mount Thrust was launched, deploying more than 10,000 Afghan and coalition forces in the south. About 700 people, most of whom were Taliban, were killed.

Eventually, U.S. Wants to Turn Over Afghan Military Operations to NATO

(EXCERPT) "The United States favors eventually turning over the
U.S.-led coalition's military operations in Afghanistan to NATO as the
alliance expands its security role there, U.S. Defense Secretary
Donald Rumsfeld said in Brussels," Agence France-Press reports.

"Rumsfeld said the idea of such an expanded role for NATO might come
up in discussions at a two-day meeting here of alliance defense
ministers but not as formal US proposals or requests."


What can all this possibly mean? Well, the US wanted to be out of Afghanistan and concentrate on Iraq. Yes, the US military did an amazing job and should have stayed there-maybe you should ask the administration why they pulled out?

Answer 3

DO you mean the $22 million in $100 bills that the CIA passed out, buying friendship.

Why would the UN destroy US currency???

Go big Red Go

Answer 4

Bush is the one that "cut and ran" out of Afghanistan before the job was done.

Answer 5

well i see your NOT into research......or follow history and human behavior.......cause you question has your expected answer.....so you do not want info or a debate but answers from those who agree from you......but I will try toi enlighten you.

Well,,,,,after a conflict.....as time goes on....the expectation of the losing country changes.......first relief..somes happiness at seeing the bad governement go.....then expecations of food and medicene and services restored....the next part is tricky.............cause the people of the occupied country want to get back with their old lives before the bad governement.....but the occupier seeks to instill new institution and method of government to prevent old governement from comin back........so things get messey.........as the new order sorts its self out

the real problem with afghanistan and iraq is that we now try to fight clean wars.......with bombs that take out a particular building or individuals.....in the less precise bomb days.....the amount of bombs needed was so great that our enemies were wiped out to larger degree .....that is why so many enemy warriers got away...and are back fighting in both countries.....that was a decision and policy of the USA to go for certain targets....bomb enough to defeat...but not wipe out the majority of enemy warriers.....that was an AMERICAN plan and policy......and now there back haressing American and NATO troops......................i would say a nice liberal policy to let so many enemy combatants live.....you might rethink that in your next conflict.....to do a better job of getting the bad guys out to larger degree......dead enemies do not come back to shoot you at you as your restore a country.....................

Answer 6

bush declared afghanistan a victory. he said the taliban was crushed and terrorists could no longer launch attacks from there. did you believe him? 9/11 and afghanistan was forgotten and the war on terror was abandoned when iraq was invaded for personal reasons.

Answer 7

I believe the objective was to find Bin Laden...an amazing job? right, an unfinished job, side tracked by an illegal unrelated invasion.

Answer 8

The words "too liberal" and the "UN" in the same sentence epitomize redundancy.

Answer 9

we needed to disband the corrupt and biased u.n. years ago they have always been an enemy of the u.s. and have always been unfair to them and attack them verbally every chance they get.

Answer 10

You mean they're not letting Unilocal and Enron do their job?
Shame on... shame on ...
