Afghanistan was a noble endeavour in 2001.
Fast forward a few years and it become a cash grab for a select few very wealthy people.

It's despicable and the time to bring everybody home is now - the children of those born on 9/11 whose parents went off to war, are now eligible to serve in the same theatre 18 years later. That is awful.
The Afghan people do not deserve this. I'm not convinced they even know what's going on in their own country, or if they even want Western interference.
Thinking you can influence and change a tribal nation in a couple decades, with a few billion in military handouts is the most arrogant attitude the world has ever known.
