I'm sure America was confident they'd win in Vietnam until they lost
I'm sure they were confident the the Shah of Persia(today Iran) would be in power forever until Khomeni took over
After that they were very confident that Saddam Hussein would be a friend forever (they supported Iraq after Khomeni took over)
Sometimes there is just no reason to be confident.
And this is one of those times. Fighting a war in terrain like Afghanistan against people that would gladly sacrifice their lives is crazy. It's just impossible to win.
