    VIDEO HAD TO BE REMOVED YESTERDAY DUE TO DEMONETIZATION. It's now resolved! Sorry for the confusion. "9/11" had to be bleeped out, otherwise it would have been demonetized.

      Not exactly sure what you are talking about since it's virtually impossible to change the mindset of a people in 20 years never mind in a country with only a quarter of the population literate. At least Al-Qaeda is no longer a major threat and thousands of Afghans have found better homes elsewhere.

      Ya, it's fairly messed up. I recall a story from American soldiers where they were at an Afghan army base as advisors, and the commander would have young boys brought to his quarters at night for reasons you can probably guess. Americans were specifically told not to get involved, let alone bring it up. War involves making lots of concessions in order to work together. It's just unfortunate that the Afghanistan the West tried to build was disgusting AND incompetent.

    And the censorship here on CZcams of an educational video on such important historical event that defined the geopolitical situation of the last two decades (even if it may not be YT censoring it directly, demonetization based on advertisers' requierements practically achieve the same goal) says a lot about the current state of things.
