You got it. Nation Building Sucks. Screw them. We need to drill for our own oil. Tell them to eat their oil for dinner. I worry about our guys who are isolated in Afghanistan. They rely on supply lines that can be cut in 1 hour. It is not a good tactical situation. Counter insurgency is ridiculous. Bring em home. We could end up with another Viet Nam type evacuation if things go bad with Pakistan.
