It's time for us to just rip off the Band-aid that is our occupation of Afghanistan. Yes, blood will flow, but it will coagulate into a scab that no longer relies on billions of dollars of American intervention in the form of tax-payer funded, privately profitable military operations, not to mention the tight-rope walking of our state department attempting to present the issue of America being on 'everyone's side.' I know this is far more easier said than done, but dammit, for the sake of preventing America from falling further into decline, we must reign in our military misadventures, beginning in Afghanistan and then addressing the hundreds of military bases around the world...
