The Taliban moved with lighting quickness and took Afghanistan over in record time. We left an unwinable war, a divided country and thousands of allies behind and nobody knows what would have been the best thing. Nobody wanted the US to stay indefinitely but leaving as swiftly as we did doesn't seem like it accomplished what we set our mission for 20 years ago.
The problem is there would never have been a good time. This is as good a time as ever.
