Nah, thats historical revisionism.

You cant say US lost the war when they literally dismantled the ruling government and its armed forces, then controlled the nation for two decades. It was not American soil, so they were inevitably going to leave. They trained and supplied the local Afghan forces to protect their country, but apparently a lot of them dont really want to do that.

it depends on what the goals of the war was
was the goal of the war just to dismantle a government and occupy land for two decades?
or was it to create a safer world free of terrorism?

if the first, good for you, you did it, whopp de doo
if the second, it's absolutely a loss

(not counting in the real goal of the war being to fatten up the military industrial complex and get a bunch of oil being a factor)
