And this is the war that should have been fought according to all the lefties who opposed the US efforts in Iraq.

Now, where are those same people? Oh right, they’re back to having their head in the sand - ignoring the threat that failed states pose when terrorists like al Qaeda make them a safe haven from which to plot, train, and expedite terror attacks around the world.

Now, most of these Democrats oppose the war in Afghanistan? It’s little wonder that the media is talking up the death toll among US troops there, even though we’re nearly 8 years from the 9/11 attacks and the subsequent US invasion of Afghanistan to eliminate the Taliban who harbored al Qaeda.

They too want to ignore the threat, which hasn’t left, but migrated into the border region with Pakistan, and from where terrorists from al Qaeda continue to carry out their deadly intent.
