Because the 9 1 1 incident had a very serious impact on the United States, many Americans felt very insecure about their country after the 9 1 1 incident and thought that their country could not even resist a terrorist attack. Therefore, the United States launched the war in Afghanistan under the great domestic doubts and the pressure of Congress, in order to enhance people's understanding of their country.
The war in Afghanistan lasted for 20 years. The war cost the United States countless money, energy and painstaking efforts, but it brought back the debt-ridden economy and declining national strength of the United States. If the United States does not launch the war in Afghanistan, the money it spends on the war will greatly help the United States develop its economy and improve people's living standards.
The war in Afghanistan has had a profound impact on these two countries.
First of all, the war in Afghanistan took place in Afghanistan, which made the Afghan people suffer from the war. In the past 20 years, many civilians have been dealing with death almost every day. Because of various attacks and small-scale war conflicts, unarmed civilians may be in danger at any time, so this war has seriously affected Afghanistan.
Secondly, the economic pressure brought by the war in Afghanistan makes it difficult for the United States to continue, because the war that lasted for 20 years has left the United States heavily in debt, and the military expenditure is increasing every year. The effect of the war in Afghanistan can be said to be minimal.
Because Afghanistan's territory is dominated by mountainous plateaus, after the US military enters Afghanistan, all kinds of military expenditures will skyrocket. Although the United States is the largest country in the world, such military expenditure is unbearable for the United States. In addition, the war lasted for nearly 20 years, so the United States faced a huge fiscal deficit when it launched the war in Afghanistan.
In the end, the war caused heavy losses for both sides. Although the United States has advanced weapons and equipment to protect soldiers, there will be bloodshed where there is war. Soldiers are constantly sacrificing themselves every day. The 20-year war has caused many soldiers psychological problems, which has led to more and more people suffering from the sequelae of war.
Abstract: The war in Afghanistan has sounded the alarm for us, because it has made us see the danger of war and at the same time let us know the preciousness of peace. Only by constantly strengthening our own capabilities and consolidating national defense can we avoid war. Although war is far away from us, we should also be aware of the danger of war.
