I agree with this in spirit. I think OEF is winnable and sustainable and has the potential to turn Afghanistan to a point where the Afghani people will have signifigantly brighter prospects for the future. I've also found that those veterans who feel that their service was meaningful far outnumber those who think it was meaningless, and that those who have served honorably far outnumber those who have engaged in any dishonorable behavior (by their standards, not by mine or yours or the media's). But I think it's a crying fucking shame that we've got Americans over there. I don't think that a hundred thousand Afghanis are worth one single American life. I don't think they're worth one single American sustaining a paper cut. I've said many times that everything that we should have done over there was completed inisde a few weeks.
