I know that one!
There was no "insurgency" in Germany after WWII, though some die hards did choose death over surrender, a few snipers cleaned up by June of '45. The Allies weren't suffering from IEDs and mortars and rockets for 8 years after the surrender.
But 17 years after our victory in A-stan US soldiers are still being shot. 4 yesterday, I heard.
Someone tell the Taliban that Kabul has fallen! No reason to continue fighting.
