In what's already being hailed as a defining and explosive "Pentagon papers" moment, a cache of previously classified documents obtained by The Washington Post show top Pentagon leaders continuously lied to the public about the "progress" of the now eighteen-year long Afghan war.
The some 2,000 pages of notes from interviews of senior officials who have shaped US strategy in Afghanistan confirm that “senior US officials failed to tell the truth about the war in Afghanistan throughout the 18-year campaign, making rosy pronouncements they knew to be false... hiding unmistakable evidence the war had become unwinnable," according to the bombshell Post report.
The internal interviews and statements were unearthed via Freedom of Information Act request and span the Bush, Obama and Trump administrations. The trove further confirms that US leaders knew vast amounts of money was being wasted in a futile attempt to "Westernize the nation".

Like most of us didn't already know this, if you didn't your head is in the sand or up your arse!
Our Government has been corrupt and evil to the core; continually lied to it's citizens as they did whatever they could do to steal our money, set up wars around the world while not caring how many of our military men and women lost their lives or were horribly maimed. All in a mad rush to set up the New World Order/One World Government. They would be 'in charge' of the 'surfs'; you and me. Thank God for President Trump. Please continue to pray for his protection and his Win in 2Q2Q...
As if we didn't know this after the first year just what the Russians, too, found out the hard way.
WaPo has always been an intelligence asset. Always. And they are still spinning this story. No wars are winnable. Winning a war is not the point. The population is no threat to the elites.
War is depopulation.
Period
And the British before them...
Just like Viet Nam...unwinnable and so many lives lost not to mention the disgrace our surviving heroes faced when they came home. That debacle changed our nation irreparably and created a rift in society all for $$$ in the pockets of corrupt government officials.
Don't forget cheney and haliburton, the defense contractor
