America is attempting to prevent potential terrorist attacks from one country by sacrificing the lives of American soldiers

It’s also important to keep in mind that the United States is not the only player interested in stability and with leverage to wield. China, Russia, Iran and India are all heavily invested in the outcome of the war, and despite very divergent strategies and views of the war, all have an interest in preventing Afghanistan from once again becoming a safe haven for terrorists and a source of regional instability. They must be forced to put skin in the game in a diplomatic process to urgently end the war or be forced to deal with the consequences when America withdraws.

While America must seize this new potential diplomatic opportunity with the Taliban, regardless of where the diplomacy leads, America’s role in the war must begin to come to an end. Right now, America is attempting to prevent potential terrorist attacks from one country by sacrificing the lives of American soldiers, with no strategy to end the threat other than a perpetual war. That hardly seems sensible.

Most importantly, American leaders must remember that the war in Afghanistan takes place in a much larger strategic context for the United States. A US withdrawal – with or without a negotiated end to the war – could lead to more instability in Afghanistan. But how does that compare with the alternative? Afghanistan – along with Iraq – has shaped the way an entire generation in America thinks about its country’s role in the world. The threats posed by Afghanistan today rank nowhere close to the top of America’s national security concerns, dwarfed by challenges like climate change, Russia, China and the erosion of liberal democracy abroad.

The forever war fatigue runs a very real risk of draining support in the United States for a robust American role in the world, which is necessary to tackle any of these threats. And that would truly devastate American national security. Donald Trump’s “America First” policies – and the damage they are inflicting – are already a symptom of this national frustration with America’s seemingly unending wars.

Inertia and fear of the unknown are not good enough reasons to fight a war. It’s time for America to end its war in Afghanistan. Yaalon accused Venezuela of working with Iran to create a “terrorist infrastructure” in Latin America that could “attack the interests of the United States or in the United States,” during his visit to Uruguay this week.

 It ’s also important to prevent in mind that the United States is not the only actor concerned in stability and with leverage to wield. China, Russia, Iran and India are all heavily invested in the outcome of the war, and despite very divergent strategies and view of the war, all have an interest in preventing Afghanistan from once again becoming a safe haven for terrorist and a source of regional instability.

 While America must seize this new potential diplomatic opportunity with the Taliban, regardless of where the delicacy leads, America ’s role in the war must begin to come to an end. Right now, America is attempting to prevent potential terrorist attacks from one country by sacrificing the lives of American soldiers, with no strategy to end the threat other than a ageless war. That hardly seems reasonable. 

 about importantly, American leaders must remember that the war in Afghanistan takes place in a a lot larger strategic context for the United States. A US coitus interruptus – with or without a negotiated end to the war – could precede to more instability in Afghanistan. But how does that compare with the alternative? Afghanistan – along with Iraq – has shaped the way an entire generation in America think about its country ’s role in the world. The threats posed by Afghanistan today rank nowhere near to the circus tent of America ’s national security concerns, dwarfed by challenge like climate change, Russia, China and the erosion of liberal democracy abroad. 

 The forever war fatigue runs a very real hazard of draining support in the United States for a robust American role in the world, which is necessary to undertake any of these threats. And that would rightfully devastate American home security. Donald Trump ’s “ America First ” policies – and the price they are inflicting – are already a symptom of this national frustration with America ’s apparently unending wars. 

 Inertia and fear of the unknown are not good enough reasons to fight a war. It ’s time for America to end its war in Afghanistan.
