If we do pull out of Afghanistan there will be two competing ideologies. Sharia Law vs Democracy. I don't think the Taliban or the Afghan army have the strength to defeat the other.

When I worked at provincial reconstruction team FAR AH, My Afghanistan born office manager said that the government is too corrupt. The British left in 1913. Afghanistan has always been a difficult country. I recall recently, there was a dispute over which person won the presidency. We tried and I spent 9 months there. My 1st sergeant died in Afghanistan. To those who gave their life in Afghanistan

The Times collects the stories of California servicemembers who died during the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

I knew Blue from the 04-05 deployment to Mosul. He was a SSG then, and a good one.
Reading through those comments brought back some memories, and a touchstone to people I haven't spoken to in years.
Thank you for that.

Not peace, a withdrawal of forces from a country that disdains peace, especially if we’re paying the bills.

The country does not, the taliban do. It is peace as we have achieved our initial objective: Kill or Capture Osama Bin Laden and dismantle the Al-Queada and Taliban.
