Too little. Why so slow?
There is no, NO reward for staying in Afghanistan any longer. Pakistan? Nope. The people in Pakistan don’t trust us at all. In fact, they consider us their enemy. What is needed is a reset. We need to get out. Totally. For several years. We need to cut the aid to the government and let the Pakistanis get their government in order without using us as a boogie man.
And we need to get totally out of Iraq. We’ve done enough damage to all 3 nations. We need to get totally out and stop all aid until each country gets things settled without our influence.
As for terrorism, use the CIA, Interpol, FBI, our Allies intelligence to search out the terrorists. Armies can’t do that. It’s investigation and information gathering and analysis that is needed.
We need to get our troops home and put those resources where they are needed at home.
