At THIS point though dont you kind of have to support the mission?? If it fails that country will fall into complete and utter chaos......MUCH worse than we have seen since the start of the war.

I support victory because it means that nation has been stabilized and our troops get to come home.

Failure means we get forced out of that country, a full blown civil war erupts like we haven't yet seen, and Iran comes in and a huge conflict breaks out with countless innocent lives being lost.......At levels we haven't even come close to seeing yet.

So yeah im supporting our mission over there at THIS point because I dont want to see those things I described. That doesn't mean I like the reasons we went there or that I wanted to even be in this position in the first place.
