Nimble, weaponized drones in the air and on land, having dozens of sensors 
across the electromagnetic spectrum as well as advanced machine learning 
capabilities, could be used to hunt down targets in these hopeless states.

You mean we should forget about tribalism and Islamism because the future 
belongs to robots anyway? The new Tesla robot looks creepy. I want a real R2D2.

Robotics seem inevitable for keeping the pressure on for this sort of situation.

Why have the Taliban been able to conquer Afghanistan so quickly, although they 
were hopelessly outgunned for almost 20 years as the article in the Atlantic 
describes ("Brother... it's too cold to jihad") ? It seems as if Afghanistan 
exists only in two stable modes: tribalism where the country is divided among 
clans and tribes, and radical Islamism in form of Taliban rulership. Both are 
among the oldest forms of political order forms according to Francis Fukuyama 
(who wrote two books about the development of political order which I am 
currently reading)
