4. Well stated position. Here is my problem with Afghanistan - it can't be won.
We know that from what the Russians went through. We know what happened in Vietnam.

We did what we did after 911. I can handle why we did it (though in principle I am anti-war). But continuing this is just going to lead to more deaths, and the outcome won't be any different in 5-10-15 years than if we just get out of there now.
