    VIDEO HAD TO BE REMOVED YESTERDAY DUE TO DEMONETIZATION. It's now resolved! Sorry for the confusion. "9/11" had to be bleeped out, otherwise it would have been demonetized.

Americans were specifically told not to get involved, let alone bring it up. War involves making lots of concessions in order to work together. It's just unfortunate that the Afghanistan the West tried to build was disgusting AND incompetent.

    Looking forward for the second part, especially knowing retrospectively how eventually things in Afghanistan almost went back to square one for most of locals.
    And the censorship here on RUclips of an educational video on such important historical event that defined the geopolitical situation of the last two decades (even if it may not be YT censoring it directly, demonetization based on advertisers' requierements practically achieve the same goal) says a lot about the current state of things.

      b) adequate reaction to such videos.
      c) more censorship on the real problematic content.
