![]() within two years? we've been in afganistan for ten. bin laden just got killed, didn't he? not eight years ago, that's for sure.
my point is, if the war in afganistan is either unwinnable, or unendable, than it shouldn't have been started. bin laden died in pakistan, but you know that. anyway, not a typical 'war', so it can't be waged in typical fashion. conventional warfare hasn't been the key, nor has it gotten us much in that country. drones, spying, direct targeting on the other hand, it's worked wonders. now, we may well have been done with all this bs over there in afganistan by now, had our country and military not been side-tracked into iraq all this time. that mistake, more than any other, is what's caused this to drag on for so long. poor handling from the start. however, afganistan just seems to be that song that never ends, no end in sight. how long til we decide we've done all we can do? have we done all we can? if so, and it won't get better, than we need to leave.
