#2 It Appears to these Old Eyes many people don't seem to understand Islamic Terrorists Thrive in the dark disconnected places. We pull out Afghanistan will once again become a Jihadi wonderland.

#3 Eternal war! The military-industrial complex is making a mint on this war and will *not* let it stop.

Jihadi wonderland? Since when was Afghanistan a civilized country? Never. It never was. That's a lie. Afghanistan can never be made into a "safe" country and if it was going to happen, it would have happened by now. We beat the Nazis in 5 years. 19 years against desert rats and we can't win?

#4 ..well, we went nearly full Mongol on the Germans. Can't do that anymore cause we don't wage real war. BTW, the Mongols did pacified the region we know as Afghanistan.

#5 ISIS in Afghanistan is already in conflict with the Taliban, Al Q and the Govt.

In fact, reports are that the US has used ISIS-Taliban conflicts to take airpower shots at ISIS troops.

We could keep an air and drone base in Tajikistan or Uzbekistan but otherwise leave. Let the jihadis fight each other for a few years.

#9 It's not the other NATO nations' war, other than to keep Afghan refugees out.
