Out of Afghanista­n

-

President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump both are due appreciati­on for finally getting us out of Afghanista­n where, in my opinion, we should have never been. Even former President George W. Bush now reportedly agrees we should have never gone into Afghanista­n.

After we have been there for 20 years, the Taliban now reportedly control more territory than before we invaded. Thus we have spent untold billions of dollars and lost thousands of lives with little if anything accomplish­ed. The Afghan people seemingly don’t want us there any more than did the Iraqis. How can we dictate how other people live when we have so many murders here?

Let’s try working together to solve our own problems before we try to dictate to other countries as to how they should live.
