Answer 1

The Russians didn't have much luck there either.

Answer 2

The Taliban aren't a whole country, they are just a small party within Afghanistan. USA went to fight them in October 2001.  General Franks indicated initially it would take around 3 months.

USA was in World War 2 fighting the German and the Japanese for 4 years. So far the modern USA army has taken 7 years against the Taliban , who aren't even a proper uniformed army, and there's no end in sight.

The longer you fight, the more people you upset, the more they want to join them. Plus there are people joining in Iraq. Plus if you attack Iran, there will be more wishing to lay down their life.
