I was glad to see in Pamlico Today that Congressman Walter B. Jones, Jr. has come out publicly for a withdrawal from Afghanistan.
Senator Aiken of Vermont once observed during the Vietnam War that the US could well declare victory and bring the troops home, leaving the conflict to be resolved politically.
Not a bad idea for Afghanistan today. We need to get over the illusion that we can remake the world by force of arms. We may have better success by using the force of ideas. Or example.
