The best way to help ordinary Afghans would be to accept as many refugees as possible, not continuing a doomed occupation.

That鈥檚 ridiculous. Terrorist groups are in Africa, too. You going to import all those people as well?

We should help the people of Afghanistan. We should help the women of Afghanistan. But the U.S. government (and military) is not a good faith actor on the world stage. Don't let the U.S. government use humanitarian concern as a blank check to continue dominating the world.

Right in your gated neighborhood
So they can be turned back at the border like all the "tonks" and "guats"?
Maybe we could send a make up artist and make them look white? Maybe then US would care
Are you suggesting the US military is willing to act as Uber for refugees?

20 years wasted. No more.

I agree with you on most things, but continued occupation is definitely not one of them. Some of our allies in Afghanistan kept child sex slaves and our soldiers were told by the Afghanistan officials to look the other way. We've never made good choices there.
