Ideally, the Afghans should wake up one morning and find all of the Americans gone—kind of like the rapture.

Do you think there’s any way to withdraw without blood? I’ve been thinking about this since the first Tora Bora fiasco and cannot figure how to get out of that sh*t hole without losing people and a serious bloodbath.
Back then I was all for some revenge but I was not big on boots on the ground.

I seem to remember writing what a hornets nest it was and Bush doubled down running in to Iraq. Guess I’m being rhetorical but I can’t see a way to leave. Plus the Talibunnies will just burn and pillage all the opium poppies...I’d agree with that part.

Ideally I’m all for a raptura disappearing act. Tired of losing blood and treasure in far off lands
