“...to keep Trump from withdrawing from Afghanistan and Germany.”
The Brits also had several ‘Afghan Wars’. In one (the first?) the army negotiated a withdrawal of their troops and followers from Kabul. The Afghans waited until the army got to the Khyber Pass and slaughter them all, except onemen, women and children. Survivors were set to by the women with their knives.
There is absolutely nothing that we can accomplish with our troops there. President Trump is right to correct this mistake. Not our circus, not our monkeys.
"When you're wounded and left on Afghanistan's plains,
And the women come out to cut up what remains,
Jest roll to your rifle and blow out your brains
An' go to your Gawd like a soldier." - Kipling
