This is aimed at one particular person here, who posts as
, and who said in an earlier exchange about
Afghanistan, among other things:

We took the Taliban out of power and showed the world that if you
sponsor terrorism, you run the risk of having the US take out your
little empire, blow up your house, and kill your family.

Well, you're wrong about that. Check out this article, from today's /Wall
Street Journal/, no less, which says:

The Taliban have gained the upper hand in Afghanistan, the top
American commander there said, forcing the U.S. to change its
strategy in the eight-year-old conflict by increasing the number of
troops in heavily populated areas like the volatile southern city of
Kandahar, the insurgency's spiritual home.

So much for American supremacy as ordained by God himself.
