Final answer:

The US military intervention in Afghanistan achieved short-term objectives but faced challenges in long-term nation-building efforts.


Explanation:

The American military intervention in Afghanistan aimed to remove the Taliban from power and dismantle the al-Qaeda network they supported.

Despite some successes in initial operations, the subsequent nation-building efforts faced challenges in establishing security, stability, and democratic governance due to factors such as warlord control, opium economy, and lack of centralized authority.

Osama bin Laden's killing and reducing Taliban influence were achieved, but the long-term goals of economic prosperity, stable governance, and permanent security remain elusive.
