Blame Hitler for that one. He wanted all the Jews in a centralized locations, Palestine, so when the Nazis won the war, they could wipe them out in one swift blow.

Afghanistan is and will always be a quagmire. No force will ever conquer that area, regardless of military or economic strength . They bankrupted the USSR and now they're doing it to the U.S. Did we not learn anything from the Russians during the Cold War?

Don't forget about the drug trade! Afghanistan produces like 90% of the heroin in the world. What better way to fund illegal wars than with illegal money. Can't rightfully pay for black ops without black market money. Ask Reagan about the Iran-Contra scandal and the CIA selling cocaine and crack in the U.S. to fund their clandestine missions. Or how about the CIA and Air America in Vietnam/Cambodia? This shit has been going on for longer than Bush, Obama, and even Reagan.
