Don’t allow Afghanistan/Pakistan to become the next Vietnam. Every bomb that drops creates more terrorists than it kills because innocent civilians are being hurt and killed, too. There is no military solution in Afghanistan.
I was shocked to learn that for every dollar spent there less than a dime goes to non-military aid. This is a sure recipe for disaster and we can't afford it. Please work towards a political solution by increasing humanitarian aid, decreasing military aid and bringing our troops home from Afghanistan/Pakistan. We cannot afford the blood, the treasure, or the animus U.S. escalation is sure to incur. Nor can we afford the collateral damage from drone attacks that kill suspected Taliban and terrorist leaders along with innocent civilians.
There is far too much at stake to become entangled in Afghanistan/Pakistan. Our troops have served us well--but to no avail--please bring them home to their families.
