What should the US do in Afghanistan?
Previously I thought we should stay the course there and declare our understanding that it may take 25-50 years to win and our willingness to stay that long. This article, however, has me reconsidering. What do you think?

P.S. The author of the article is "John Q Bolton" but the current US Secretary of State is "John R Bolton" - two different people.

Get out, America cannot realistically influence the domestic politics of another state and Afghanistan is unwinnable. The USSR learned that and we should have known better. You don't win over the hearts and minds of people by bombing them.
