Geography. It's basically all mountain ranges (for which the US military isn't very well set-up) and the only ways in logistically are really easy to defend.

He certainly knows how to enrage the hysterical. It is rather funny at times.... 😀
The racism is entirely deliberate. He isn't racist, he doesn't give a **** about stuff like that. It's purely to appeal to his base and get the lefties in a lather.
The ultimate wind up artist 😀
Of course, there is a sense in which it isn't funny and it has nothing to do with him. The hysterical reaction is now commonplace in pretty much all forms of political discourse. One doesn't need to say anything remotely offensive by most people's standards to gain its focus.
Like most people, I have pretty much given up with trying to have sane and civilised conversation about any of this stuff. Its gender pay gap week this week so I've restricted myself to interjecting with the odd remark about how 99% of our staff are on prescribed salary bands and it is therefore ****ing impossible for people to be paid more than someone else for the same job.
There really isn't an answer to that so it ends the conversation
It still amazes me that a mere 44 years or so after Vietnam the Americans still don't understand that having the biggest, baddest military in the world doesn't mean that you can always get what you want.
I've read so many descriptions of their military/intelligence people war gaming various scenarios and the result is always that they can't just threaten/blast their way to success - yet that continues to be a major part of their foreign policy.
Astonishing.
