    The only Afghan War question in America is *how* it should be waged. For Dems it's about adding more Yale Law profs to the assassination process, more NGO $$$ on the ground. For the GOP it's "do we privatize the war/subsidize a GOP donor family or not?" BUT WHAT IS THE WAR FORhttps://twitter.com/NBCNews/status/1030486066665537536 …

        Complete Brzezinskian geopolitical sociopathy. Keeping bases near China and Russia's soft underbelly on the "Grand Chessboard" or some godawful inhuman nonsense like that.

        Very true. Also, abysmal number of Democrats voted against $717 billion endless war spending bill Trump recently signed. It would've been even lower if Trump wasn't intent to expand nuclear weapons for offensive use. That's how permanent war has become.

        A measure of the insanity is that Obama ran on a policy of “surging” in Afghanistan, and he was promptly handed the Nobel Peace Prize for winning the job.

        At this point it's just a sunk-cost fallacy. "We can't leave because we've wasted too many resources and lives to leave and just let the status-quo ante return."

        The best moment to leave Afghanistan was after the Bin Laden assassination. You could sell that politically as mission accomplished to get around the sunk-cost fallacy inertia.

        The US will get ever more desperate and interventionist as it hurtles towards insolvency.
