New That's not how I remember it
The decision was to get rid of the Taliban as a harbourer of the group that destroyed the WTC, and to replace it with a democratic model state for the region.

It just didn't actually come about that way.

The objective was to destroy the terror camps that had existed in Afghanistan since the post-Russian days, and to find and kill/capture OBL. Democracy and nation-building be damned. This should have been a seek and destroy mission.
