Could be a title of a musical: "Forever in Afghanistan."
At the NATO summit beginning Friday the United States will endorse turning over security responsibilities in Afghanistan to Afghan forces by the end of 2014--but also commit to “an enduring longer-term commitment,” President Obama’s “war czar” said this week.
Just great.
What a fiasco. The only time that we should enter into a war with troops is when we are prepared to impose our will on the entire population, completely destroy the enemy, and colonize the place afterwards. Half-assed nation buidling projects do not work, and they really don't work in a place like Afghanistan where there are only seven working toilets in the whole country. If we are not prepared to do what it takes to win a war and totally bring a population to its knees, we should not be there fighting at all.
