      We talked about it when it was happening.
      We even talked about them leaving.
      We talked about how much of an utter failure for the General Directorate it was, and how good the French army actually handled itself.

      These.

      The French military handled it self very well. I find myself consistently impressed by the performance of their modern military.

      It is basically that. I'm french and i've only done one year in the Navy, but it is pretty much what the Mali intervention was.

      I will just add, we left the Mali because Mali officials didn't wan't us anymore, and we prefer to not conduct any kind of operation that can be interpreted as an occupation, because of our history with the Mali which is an ex-colony.

      The infantry troops, especially, did an excellent work at Mali.

      >french come in and systemically destroy them

      France pushed back the insurgent expansion from the north into the south in the early 2010s, but France definitely did NOT destroy insurgency in the country whatsoever. It's still active.

      >leave after its done

      No, you were kicked out by the new Malian junta.

      I find it hilarious how France and its supporters keep bragging about this conflict in such a distorted manner:
      1. You're essentially bragging about "defeating" a force significantly weaker and under-armed then you. It's like bragging about defeating bushmen.
      2. You actually didn't win, and the insurgency is still there.

        You're describing America in Afghanistan, where you literally had to run home with your tail between your legs, with civilians falling off airplanes and suicide bombs going off all around the Kabul airport. Thousands of US dead, tens of thousands of ANA dead, and hundreds of thousands of Afghans as a whole dead, trillions of dollars and two decades down the drain with nothing to show for it. You're in no place to talk about such things. You're pathetic.

          About 800 billion, the trillions are made up by lowlives (like you). The war was a complete success, but I know you mean the security assistance provided to the Afghan government. It’s true that we abandoned them and Biden botched the withdrawal. It was such a minor commitment that even the media turned against Biden over it.

            How is it a complete success when huge swath of the country is still under taliban control at peak NATO deployment?
            How the "security assistance" provided to the afghan puppet government (cant be called anything else when the only parts of the country that vote are where peace is maintained by the armed force of an invading country) not part of the war? Or is it a weird cope? We forced our enemy to hide and leaved when we were "bored" (or maybe it was the part where it had already cost 15000$ per taxpaying american without great results and no hope for the future).
            Objective of the war was to oust taliban. Result is taliban are back in power before the US is done evacuating.
            Guess USSR won afghanistan since the communiste regime was able to hold for three years after the departure of the soviet troops.

            Sure, the US Army was able to frick the talibans. But then they just patrolled aimlessly, losing people to IED, slowly losing control over the country. Nothing to flex on the French. At least they left graciously before it was clear they had failed in the same way the us did.

        see

        I almost feel bad for the new junta.

        After the success of the coup they felt like they should push on to end up on top, but the french fricked off rather than compromise, their neighbours are closing the borders, Wagner is looting the country, and the terrorists are coming back.
        Serval 2.0 in five years?

        Couple good documentaries about the french intervention:

        (16min)

        (53min)

        There also was an excellent 3-parter by Vice, but the 2nd part is lost footage now 🙁

    Speaking of military evacuations, anyone have that political cartoon where this taliban dwarf hands over a rainbow flag to a US soldier and says "take your flag with you"? I've been trying to find it but I swear America's Ministry of Truth must have scrubbed it clean off the internet.

    Because is isn't impressive or any kind of acheivment at all. It was a tiny conflict that had to be carried by allies then they were told to leave and now the country is fricked.
