You want them to stay. Change the ROE. Stop worrying about “civilian” casualties. Free up the trigger fingers.
We can’t just cut and run from a fight like cowards.
That would be humiliating.
Simple: Bring them home or unleash the hounds of hell. This PC crap is getting our fine military troops killed. What in hell is in Afghanistan asset wise that keeps us there. The Taliban are there to stay and as long as Islam is both religion and political power and a tribal mindset with no desire to change, IMHO, nothing is going to change. The Islamists have only one goal...to kill all infidels.
