It's what created ISIS, what put the Taliban back in power, what cost us the war in Vietnam. I don't blame Biden for the mess in Kabul, but the retaliatory air strikes are another thing entirely.
I've said it again and again but it's true--the only lesson learned from Vietnam was never draft soldiers. Americans will ignore a 20-year long war as long as they aren't called on to put themselves out in any way.
The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.
