the facts about here:

insurgency and terrorism are a seasonal thing around here. the winters are calm and boring. the summer and fall are when things heat up.

ISAF is a for the most part US.

most of this country is “safe”

the teliban still have a couple cities under their control

almost every official in this country is corrupt and working for the teliban or drug trader is some form or another

i watch millions of dollars every day wasted it’s amazing.
