you can argue the presence keeps turkey at bay. how many american lives is that worth?
pete, a speck of honesty would
mandate that you don’t only look at the benefit of leaving the troops there. you have to compare the benefit and the cost. everything looks swell when you celebrate the benefit and pretend there’s no cost.
and again, trump campaigned
on this, his victory doesn’t suggest to me that americans want troops
there forever.
