Not his Children!

Lindsey Graham proud of Trump's decision: 'The gloves are off inside of Afghanistan'

Of course he is, since neither he or Trump or any of their children wil be killed in military action in the region.

Since the mid 1800s, some group in Afghanistan has been at war with either themselves or outsiders for about 50 years total. The Brits failed to subdue the region as did the Soviets.

We never seem to learn. We supported the very people we now are fighting from 1979-1992. Short of waging genocidal war in the entire nation, this is a fool's mission. Political regimes come and go, but religious fanaticism respects no timeline which can be imposed by external pressure. Afghanistan will only be pacified again when Afghanis reject mutually destructive internecine sectarian hatred.

If we look to history for western examples of this sort of fanatic religious intolerance, consider the Thirty Years' War, Ireland (terrorism involved), the Hugenot wars in France, the Crusades, The Meadow Mountain massacre, English Civil War, and the list goes on. Low estimates for the deaths attributable directly to these conflicts top 10 million. Apparently it's only really, really, evil when non-Christians are involved, huh?
