We ended it just like Vietnam. We declared a victory and pulled out.

Many suggested years ago we, “Bomb Afghanistan back to the Stone Age.”

Unfortunately, they have never left the Stone Age.

We bombed the place for years and just moved some rocks around and got a lot of good Americans killed.

Nation building in muzzie countries or africa is a waste of lives and effort.

“and will again threaten the rights of women and girls to work and attend schools.”

Don’t care. Not our problem.

How would events in Afghanistan unfolded any differently if President Trump was still President? When US forces left the Taliban would have moved in no matter who is President here, correct?

Blood and treasure, that is all that our national leaders, and many of our conservative and republican commentators want to burn.

We are falling apart as a nation in part because we did not listen to our founding fathers concerning foreign affairs.

Yes, you help your allies when they need it —— but Afghanistan is nothing about allies. Everyone knew it would be pointless when we went in, I didn’t listen at the time.

I now know the republicans I will never vote for (which does NOT mean I will vote for the opposing liberal), the ones that one to start something and keep it running against a people who prefer to live like stone-agers.

I even question my support of Iraqi Freedom at this point.

Also, this is no reflection on the soldiers who answered their nation’s call. But it’s the nation’s decision making leadership I call into question.

Do these vile neocons have no shame?

TWENTY YEARS? WITHDRAWING TOO SOON?

Fortunately we are (I think) on to them. Never again.
