The Afghanistan Mess

Let's see now. The Taliban don't  want us in Afghanistan. The Afghanis want us to leave. The majority of American citizens want us out. Yet we continue with massive casualties and huge drains on our wealth. So who benefits? Warmongers benefit. The military -industrial complex and all the jobs it creates keeps this war going. I'd wager that if most people in the U.S. were asked to choose between their defense jobs or withdrawal from Afghanistan they would choose their continued employment and a continuation of the war at some level.
