1. I hear people discussing #foreverwars. Clearly 20 years of bad policy choices in Afghanistan did not create a stable system that could be sustained but the war will continue even if we leave. The terrorists are all arriving in Kabul and the war you call "forever" will
3. now return to US soil. The @GovtofPakistan and others employed the Taliban to defeat us. If you buy PAK products or use companies that employ PAK programmers, call centers and other outsourcing, you're indirectly helping the terrorists.
4. We will get all our people out and as many Afghans as possible. We then need to sanction Pakistan, Russia and China who have all combined to advance the terrorists' mission in Afghanistan. As the last plane lifts off from Kabul, @SecBlinken must re-list the Taliban
5. that is now showing its loyalty to the Haqqani network terrorists. It is a #foreverwar and we are simply redeploying and hopefully have learned the lesson that if you want to win an asymmetric war against a terrorist force in a far away place, make sure your partners have
6. local support and are willing to fight to the death. And if you are betrayed by false allies, make them pay so great a price that no other nations will ever consider betraying us.
7. The corrupt Afghan government we created was the enemy of a large part of the Afghan population and they were not going to die to prop-up the same government that was exploiting them. But be clear, Al-Qaeda and Daesh will now explode in Afghanistan and false allies like
8. and Pakistan will soon be flying the terrorist right into London, Paris NYC and DC. @JakeSullivan46 @thejointstaff @SecDef @CENTCOM
