War. When do we quit?
I read today that the war in Afghanistan recently completed it's 105th month. This makes it the longest war in our history. Longer that Vietnam which lasted 103 months. When do we stop? When do we realize that we can't win? When is enough, enough? If we haven't won the hearts and minds of these people in almost 9 years I don't think we ever will. It's time to stop wasting American lives on this hopeless tragedy.

I really think the emphasis has been wrong all along.
We're not going to blast our way to a more peaceful world- but think how much goodwill healthy food and medical care could have created for a fraction of the military budget!
