Ten Years of War in Afghanistan

The U.S. invasion and occupation of Afghanistan began on October 7, 2001. On the ten year anniversary of the U.S. invasion and occupation of Afghanistan, let’s take a moment to think about whom we’re fighting and why.

General David Petraeus has stated his belief that the Afghanistan War will last longer the Iraq War. These are somber words considering the Iraq War isn’t close to a conclusion.

Today is the ten year anniversary of the U.S. invasion and occupation of Afghanistan. How many more lives and resources have to be lost before we recognize that this is not a war for peace or security?
