Depends on what you define as victory Markus. Surely the survival of the present Afghan government was not among it's initial objectives right? As I recall we went into Afghanistan to destroy Al Quaeda operations in that country and to get 911 mastermind bin Laden. Both of those objectives were achieved. This nation building stuff was a new goal added on later mainly just as an excuse to stay there and keep feeding the military industrial complex.
