First of all, the OPERATION ENDURING FREEDOM was a real coalition of many nations, including Canada, Germany, France and so on ... So claiming the US did it is a bit ... pretentious. In fact at this time, there is more non US troops than US ones.
Secondly, Afghanistan is a mess and far from being under control. The forces dont even control Kabul.
At the time of the Russians, they did control pretty the capital, and they would of have controled the whole country if not for the interference of the USA ...
I wonder how well it would have gone if the Russians would have financed and armed the Talibans in the latest invasion ...
