I'm not sure what you mean by "late in the game," but I'm referring to the fall of 2001 when most of this debate was going on in the US media. Radical feminists had been in contact with the major women's groups in Afghanistan and were working in consort with them at this point and earlier. And if you want to go back further, it had always been a position of US rads to counter and call for an end to all US wars with the understanding that this is what EMPIRE does--eternally go to war, and beat the hell out their outclassed, out-tecked, and under-armed foes.
