loses to the Taliban.

Literally a coalition of the west lost to the Taliban military, and lost from 2014 almost on a daily basis (look up news about Afghanistan from January first 2014 till we withdrew, daily humiliation).
The Taliban, armed with only small armsvs a coalition of 110k mercenaries on top of 10-20k troops and upwards of 200-300k security forces vs 40k Taliban forces.
