> a drone strike on the palace at the right time would have gotten rid of a good chunk of the taliban leadership It probably would - but even if there were no civilian casualties, consider that such a strike would further radicalize the next generation of Taliban members who are unified by hatred towards a common enemy. The U.S has been fighting fire with fire for the past 20 years in Afghanistan. The OP hints at the deeper mysterious behind this operation, and voices a concern that is representative of the growing public disdain for the entire fiasco. As much as I want peace and equality for everyone in the region, more drone strikes are unlikely to fix the systemic and generational issues. |
