I trust in The Presidents decision to keep some troops there even though I wish they could all just come back home. I know he is fighting to end it as quickly as possible and bring them all back when the time is right.

There is so much that we don't know about the situation there that we can't make a fully informed decision about what is right. For all we know, nuclear war could be just days away.

A hard pull out would weaken our stance around the world. It would weaken our alliances with the EU, it would give russia and china more power over the region, and it would allow ISIS and the taliban to take action unchecked.

Our presence there is important to the safety of our nation.... for now.
