You're plan sounds good for a minute but when you think it through it fails. Who do we bomb? After 9/11 should it have been Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Egypt... Just bombing Afghanistan at the time would likely have given the Taliban and al Qaeda more support not less. One size never fits all, but yes we knew Afghanistan was not winnable but we wanted to weaken the Taliban enough and it almost worked. .
