Yet more reasons to leave Afghanistan

First, Nicholas Kristof notes we’re continuing to inflame the country’s Pashtuns, whether they are actually that supportive of the Taliban or not.

Yet, that’s not his conclusion; Kristof says we should stay, but with a lighter military footprint. What? Fewer troops with less power projection? That means more potshotting at them.

Meanwhile, Mr. Flatliner, Tom Friedman, admits he feels “regulating top financiers’ pay” ambivalence about the idea of doubling down. But, also wants to stay.

That’s close to Einstein’s “insanity” comments.
