    Give or take a few hundred thousand dead Afghanis, sure.

    The occupation was intolerable to generations of locals, but multiple generations died in order to force the occupation out. In the end, the US only left because they lost their resupply corridors through China, Russia, and Pakistan, thanks to exciting new wars breaking out on other sides of the globe.

      That’s the entire point of guerilla warfare, keep the pressure on until yot opponent loses their will or needs their troops elsewhere
