6. there is no strong argument for continuing with a full-fledged military operation in Afghanistan.”

And there never really was a strong argument other than creating an environment where a pipeline could be constructed through Afghanistan & Pakistan to move our "misplaced" oil to the Arabian Sea from the landlocked "Stans" to the north, and away from China.

We will never leave Iraq, Afghanistan or Pakistan as long as we are ruled by the greedy, brutal corporation's suborned(for a relative pittance) politicians, you can take that to the bank!

We will sacrifice our soldiers, our health care, our young people's education, our infrastructure, our social security, our medicare, our very future, our (supposed) democracy and our souls for what?

Duh...
