Either the Taliban/Afghanistani’s are an existential threat to the USA or they are not. If they are then we should use every available tool to kill them all. Don’t worry too much about the civilian casualties - just like we didn’t in Dresden, Berlin, Hiroshima, Tokyo and other places we were facing a real threat.
If they’re not an existential threat to us (which I believe) let’s declare victory and go home. I don’t care which goat-herding group runs the pile of rocks over there.
I kind of agree with you Jack....I do think they are a threat to us. By threat I mean their ideology is ,harmful to the world in its peoples...my desire is to kill as many of these immoral cave dwellers as humanly possible before folks like you are able to pull us from that good work. Oh, and if we can (i don’t think it possible) get them to grow corn and soybeans in place of poppies, that would be good too.
