2/ If the American people allowed ourselves to truly take in the horror of what people from Vietnam to Iraq to Afghanistan have suffered because of our own craven, misdirected foreign policies, no amount of sleeping pills could give any of us a good night’s sleep.

3/ On the other hand, taking in that horror is perhaps what’s needed in order to motivate us to rise up against the insanity of the military industrial complex. As it is, we’re just waiting for the next mad adventure. The madness needs to stop.

Our weakness in following our grievous mistakes in foreign "interventions". Not sure if it's our military lack of foresight or our political imperatives. It's more than troubling it's immoral, sinful and unforgivable. Dems have a responsibility to help Afghanistan to break this.
