Another 20 years — to flatten the curve.
I think it’s admirable the old anti-Trumper William Kristol has volunteered to go in uniform into the war zone and risk his life and body parts to get this thing straightened out.
Oh, wait. He’s going to sit in his lavish home’s library and tap out solutions so “old men send young men out to war.”
Demented and sad, but funny.
Total, invincible commitment to their hubris and folly.
bttt!
ROTFLMFAO!!!!!
The author can sign up and volunteer to go with weapon in hand.
Oh, he won’t? But he’s quick to commit the blood of others to a cause he’s “thought” about.
Any invasion force would be completely surrounded you insertion. No way to get out of that situation without casualties.
I stopped at “William Kristol”.
Great minds think alike. See my previous post!
Folks can post whatever they want. It’s my decision to read it or scroll past.
With one exception. Can we all agree to NOT post anything that is in any way associated with Kristin, Lowry, National Review, Goldberg, etc etc
> “The United States has made mistakes in Afghanistan during the past 20 years.” <
True that. And Bill Kristol endorsed every one of them. So the best thing was can say about Billy Boy is that his credibility is totally shot.
I really don’t know if there would or if there could be a situation where withdrawal would not be painless.
I’m glad this did not happen on Trump’s watch. Even though Trump ordered the de-escalation of troops in Afghanistan it was up to Biden to carry it out and screw it up.
Good call.
Sorry, Bill. Your rejection of Trump doesn’t buy you any “in-group” influence on Biden, his handlers, or anyone else. Your fantasy of your own importance is an illusion.

Former Navy SEAL: There should be a lot of people in Washington getting fired
When did Afghanistan became an ‘ally’ of the U.S.? I understand that many Afghans risked their lives to help us and our troops over the last 20 years and we morally owe them, but the nation of Afghanistan, I don’t think so.
This is rich, isn’t it.
But Trump mean-tweeted !
Don't know who Courtney is? Read Once an Eagle, by Anton Myrer. His novel has been used as part of the curriculum at the Army War College. Courtney is the well connected officer who uses his network to get promoted, at the expense of Sam Damon, a true leader of men.
These warmongering neocons never give up. Their bank accounts must be drying up. They and their buddies in the defense industry love these long, protracted conflicts with no end in sight. It means a ton of money in government contracts for all of them! That kind of dried up during the Trump years, and now they want to recoup their money!
