Time To Review The Mission

SEE HERE Perhaps we can have the forever war in Afghanistan if we keep having such help as this from the Afghan government. Battlefield roulette hardly seems to be the way to run a war. The question is whether we're accomplishing anything. If all we're doing is getting young Americans killed by a bunch of semi-literate savages who think they are acting out the will of Allah, then maybe we should let them go back to just killing each other. We need to articulate a clear and achievable mission. If that can't be done then exit gracefully and take out as much of their infrastructure as seems reasonable. (Talking about the enemy here not the people we are trying to help.) The current story is something like we're helping while they build up their own security forces. Is that so? Where were are the progress reports?
