CALLOUS INDIFFERENCE-CRISIS IN COMMAND-
US ARMY AFGHANISTAN AND WHITE HOUSE
This is a summary of an ocean of sufferings caused
in Afghanistan and border areas of Pakistan as well as in
the United States where thousands of families mourned

for their loves ones killed in battle . This is not an anti war
narrative .It is an anti stupidity narrative . A narrative
dealing only with PHENOMENAL INCOMPETENCE on
part of United States Political and military leadership. A
narrative dealing with strategic and operational and many
tactical mistakes which were entirely avoidable on part of
US political and military leadership. We hold the view that

the casualties that the United States suffered in
Afghanistan although far less than Vietnam were entirely
avoidable as well as unnecessary . Crux of the issue is
that greatest US failure in Afghanistan was a
PERCEPTUAL FAILURE both Republicans and
Democrats . UNITED STATES OF AMERICA failed to
understand that they were not battling non state actors in

Afghanistan but State actors who were using non state
actors as cheap proxies. All along United States of
America kept deceiving itself in Afghanistan that it was
battling (1) Taliban or (2) Al Qaeda . My research led me
to the conclusion that State actors in Afghanistan
accounted for Ninenty Percent of the so called Terrorism
while non state actors accounted for only Ten Percent .

The US strategy lacked that burning fire to beat the
enemy. While US strategists rightly saw China as
consolidating Pakistan as its western corridor to Gulf oil
and mineral resources of West Asia their support to
secessionists in Pakistani Balochistan was weak and
instead of strengthening Baloch nationalism has actually
weakened Baloch secessionism. Similarly US attempts to
![Page 15: USA is Phd in Strategic Failure](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5877703c1a28ab5b568b58cb/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
destabilize Pakistans Northern Area also lack serious
strategic resolve. The US 2008 plan to establish civilian
supremacy in Pakistan was also a strategic failure and has
destabilized Pakistan rather than stabilizing Pakistans civil
military equilibrium. The US strategists lacked the long
term vision to create new states which could have
stabilized the region which they had destabilized i.e Iraq

and Afghanistan.Thus Iraq was shamelessly abandoned to
become a haven of terrorism , whereas Iraqs division into
Kurd , Sunni and Shia regions would have stabilized it and
restrained and checked Iranian ambitions. Similarly US
failure to divide Afghanistan will again go a long way to
destabilize the whole region with a new Afghan Civil war.
US failure to utilize its unique central position in

Afghanistan to deal with Iran was also a failure and the US
leaves the region greatly destabilized than it was on eve of
October 2001. The report card for the US strategists is
FAIL and FAIL in both Afghanistan and Iraq while in case
of Pakistan again it was a grand failure. The US as it
leaves the region in 2014 , leaves it with a feather in its
cap of having created greater instability than was the case

Lambert Speelman May 20, 2016 at 8:24 AMWhat I noticed last night is a new Commander. When I look at him, he wants only one thing: To destroy the enemy! This will be devestating for the troops - and this will never succeed. And if it succeeds, than with a loss which America is almost unable to recover from.
The Leader is blind!
