Well- I try to be pragmatic. I’d love to set the whole world free so everyone could live in general peace and prosperity, but it’s not reality. Thing is- we are in Afghanistan, and we can help these people. I don’t know why anyone would want our help in the future if we show we’ll abandon a job we’ve started.

I was being a tad sarcastic. I’m with you. AND, quitting emboldens our enemies, as in the cases of Lebanon, Somalia, Iraq (after the first Gulf War), etc.
