To see how much damage the United States military has done to Afghanistan one need only look at the infant mortality numers (number of children who did before reaching 5 years of age out of 1000). With countries in Europe it is fewer than 4 per 1000 (as compared to 7 to 8 per 1000 in places like Mississippi, Louisiana, West Virginia, Arkansas, and Alabama). In Afghanistan the figure is 106 per 1000 or 25 times as great thanks to the complete failure of our military and our government.
The invasion of Afghanistan by the U.S. was done to protect the gas pipeline known as TAPI that is to take gas from Turkmenistan to Pakistan. The primary investor in the project is Unocal which is based in California.
