I'll cope just fine. It's the people of Afghanistan who will have trouble coping with Taliban rule. — PolitiTweet.org

I'm not sure why not. It's not as if the Taliban were observing a ceasefire while the US drew down. Their attacks continued and they were expanding in the countryside but they weren't taking cities. That only occurred after the US withdrawal. — PolitiTweet.org

@MaxBoot my point though is that it does not seem like 3k was a stable situation going forward. that seems clear to me.

Of course no one can say what would have happened--a big what if. But I commend to you the findings of the blue-ribbon Afghanistan Study Group which recommended changing to a conditions-based withdrawal and in the meantime plussing up to 4500 troops--but still in support role. — PolitiTweet.org

@MaxBoot different from my understanding but respect your opinion
