You of all people cannot be very happy with this situation !!!!
To sacrifice so much, to spill so much blood and destroy so many people's lives (on both sides) in an effort to defeat the Taliban and bring a safe stable Govt to Afghanistan, to end up 12 years later in a bloody stalemate, a quagmire is not dignified.
It smacks of defeat and realisation that only a political process can solve the problems of this Country.
So 12 years of War and Bloodshed what's that all been for...?????
