    They do have more to lose. Look at how fast the Taliban took over Afghanistan when the US left. We should have trained their women to be in the military instead of their men. I doubt the women would have just gave up.

      That’s a shit take and you know it. The Taliban isn’t something that they let win because they weren’t motivated enough. The Taliban was better funded and better organized than the government army.

        Part of me thinks that was by design. The lack of motivation to build a better organized government.
