Bring all our troops home from Afghanistan

For ten fruitless years we have had troops in Afghanistan at tremendous expense in lives as well as money. Over the years we, the people, were told a number of fairy tales about why we are there. The only one that came close to the truth was the hunt for Osama bin Laden. As it turns out we didn't get that right either, He was hiding comfortably in Pakistan. Osama has been dead for a year now. More than enough time to wrap up loose ends and come home. In addition, the Afghans supposedly friendly to us have taken to shooting at us so often that the military only reports attacks that result in an American death. There is no better indicator that we need to bring everyone home now, without delay or any stay behind elements.

Why is this important?

We have been wasting lives and money in Afghanistan for so long that now even our "friends" are shooting at us. It is time to bring everyone home without delay.
