Also, wasnโ€™t Bagram built by the Soviets in the 50s?

What an idiot.

It was destroyed during Afghan civil war. Americans and NATO took it over in 2001 and rebuilt and expanded it to where it is now. You are the IDIOT!

"In the 1950s, Bagram airfield was originally built by the Soviet Union[11] during the early period of the Cold War, at a time when the United States and the neighboring Soviet Union were spreading political influence in Afghanistan."

Awesome, looks like another generation of American soldiers will get to reoccupy the same country the Soviet Union couldnโ€™t defeat and precipitated their collapse, and then we couldnโ€™t defeat and has cost us over $2 trillion so far.

Our empire doesn't have another generation of time left to destroy capital in endless wars. We will be bankrupt long before another 20 years in Afghanistan.

To be honest, I don't really know.
