I sympathize, but I believe the best tactic is to call Obama out on the ROE.

Afghanistan is completely winnable, but Obama’s ROE prevent victory and will eventually force defeat. He is getting our soldiers killed. The solution is not to declare defeat but to get the ROE changed. (Or of course for the Chiefs of Staff to ask for Obama’s Birth Certificate).

Don’t give up on the war. If we choose not to win Afghanistan, it’s going to hurt us very badly. No-one will trust American/Western promises for a generation, just like after Vietnam. The Pakistan/Afghanistan axis of evil will grow stronger and more malignant, and our allies (such as they are) in those two countries will get squashed.

My solution is to pull them out and make that country a mass of glass slag.
