I fully supported going to Afghanistan, but our justufication for staying ended the day after bin Laden died.
IMO, we still don’t know the real story of what happened to Osama Bin Laden. We don’t know when or where it is presumed that he met his demise.
But what can you do when both sides participate in the cover up for their own reasons?
Longest war in US history.
My feelings are the same. The original incursion was absolutely necessary, and the Iraq invasion sent a clear message to evil heads-of-state who would gladly have used terrorists as proxy instruments against the West. But it carried on for far too long, to no clear purpose.
