This is good news.

There is no success in this mission, nor will there be if we spend another 100 years supporting the Government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan.

Bet you a dollar we’ll still be there after September 11.

Remember, Obama said he’d close Gitmo within a year of his Presidency.

I believe the Democrats screamed and obstructed because they didn’t want withdrawal to be a success for Trump.

Yes. There is nothing to be gained in Afghanistan. Our presence actually acts as a recruiting tool. Why would we defend a nation whose army barracks keep young boys as sex toys?

How about razing the poppy fields before we go?

Ha. We are there to protect the drug trade. Let the cartels handle their own security.

The only thing we should do different is to drop 1,000 bombs on 1,000 warlord compounds on the way out.

This is good news.

Trump had a peace deal to pull them out by May 1. This means another long hot summer for our troops and more dead soldiers fighting a forgotten cause.
