No you have it completely wrong.. The U.S. Military kicked the Taliban's ass and ran them out of Afghanistan into Pakistan. George Bush and his neocon cronies then set their eyes on Iraq and never finished the job in Afghanistan.

His fumbling then allowed the Taliban to regroup and fight from within Pakistan.. Obama then started hitting them in Pakistan, but by then it was a much harder victory to win.

What the CIA/SecOps paired up with the Northen Coalition managed to due during the beginning of the Afghan war is likely one of the most widely unknown military victories of any modern area. The Bush admin completly fucked up that war due to them being typical neo-con asshats with no plan other than we will bring them freedom fries..
