That time the Vietnam War led to the war in Afghanistan

Was it Nixon’s decision to end military conscription in 1973 that allowed America’s latest war to continue for 20 years?

And so 7,267 days of rage in Afghanistan have ended on the darkest of riddles: Who was responsible for this multi-trillion-dollar bewilderment, leaving some 241,000 dead and a televised asylum of accomplices quarrelling about who is to blame for the war’s toxic afterglow? It was me. I am the culprit, so cease and desist upbraiding former US Presidents George W Bush, Barack Obama, Donald Trump and Joe Biden.
