These aren’t “ours”, they are Afghans.
Not one of them is worth another American life.
Get out now.

Of course the Afghan government does not want a deal that would see us leave.
It’s time for us to go.
To: rktman
Predictable. Like nailing jelly to a wall.

No body over there really want peace. What they have is all these idiots have known and don’t really want to change; Hatfields and McCoys Mohommad style.

Have they thought about sending in Carrie and Saul? According to that show, they are the only two real assets in the entire US government.
