Well with Afghanistan, you guys had some sort of justification
to go there (Not including the Pipeline theory) while Iraq
shouldn't have happened in the first place.
Afghanistan does pose a chance of success for one main
reason that seperates it from past conflicts in Afghanistan: If
you have the people of Afghanistan against you, then you
will never win....
A foreign military poses a real danger to people. It's not sensible to expect Afghans -- or anyone else -- to support military occupation, especially for a significant stretch of time.
