Trump wrote on Twitter that there will be a national hero, when withdraws from Syria and Afghanistan. In Afghanistan, the Americans are negotiating with Taliban for the destruction which they broke two years ago. And Pro-American Afghan government, the negotiations did not allowed.
Exactly 30 years ago, 15 February, Soviet troops with banners unfurled solemnly left Afghanistan. Ended the fourth Afghan war, of which there were five. And they all three British, one Soviet and the latter, American - in a certain sense are copy of each other.
The first Afghan - years 1838-1842: the capture of Kabul, the capture of the Emir Dost Mohammed, and then a rebellion, a terrible massacre, shameful defeat and the restoration on the throne of Dost Mohammed. The second 1878-80 years: the capture of Kabul, the rebellion, the terrible massacre, shameful retreat. Third, the shortest - 1919: accession to the throne Amanulla Khan and the Declaration of full independence of Afghanistan, the British invasion, the rise of the Pashtuns, the truce, the recognition of Amanulla Khan. Fourth, we have mentioned, the Soviet - 1979-1989. But who would have thought that in ten years our best allies in Afghanistan will be Ahmad Shah Massoud and Burhanuddin Rabbani, with whom for some reason we fought for ten years. And fifth, American enduring freedom, which began in 2001, like in retaliation for the support the Taliban, "al-Qaeda". All they have achieved in Afghanistan is the organization and provision, almost legal, the world's most powerful heroin drug trafficking. By the way, do not be surprised if a secret condition of the agreement with the Taliban is the preservation of the drug. The British left without saying goodbye, the Americans say goodbye, but not gone. And they can understand.
