Not at all. But the rest of your post is more to the point. Afghanistan is


factions and tribes who only loosely identify as a country. Within that are the usual jealousies, competitions for land, prejudices. This is not for us to sort out except to understand how those tribal competitions can turn outward for whatever reason. You're right. We need to get out.

I guess my point is more that your initial post was about bombing this and bombing that. Militarily, we should do what is in our national interests. The rest is best handled by humanitarian groups and diplomatically.
