If they can show a strategy other than the last 17 years failed ones I’m open to staying, otherwise let them live like 7th century hermits. Bring the boys home.

Except that the Taliban shielded Bin Laden, I’m not sure Afghanistan had much strategic importance. We pretty much made it a quagmire for the Russians. We rely on Pakistan for supply there and they aren’t really on our side.
