There was an instagram post I saw (one of the boys sent it to me, I'm not a social media guy) that showed the Taliban walking through our old FOB in Afghanistan. What was odd to me about seeing that is I really had no emotional response to it. I thought I would, but I just ... didn't care anymore. Over the last few weeks I've also been sent article after article about the withdrawal from other friends (not veterans) who are deep in policy circles, about how this or that thing will mean this or that thing for Afghanistan. Does anyone in America actually care about what style of government Afghanistan adopts? Apparently these people in DC think they do.
My brother today asked me if I had an opinion on the withdrawal from Afghanistan when we did our weekly gaming session (tonight was Hearts Of Iron), and I told him "no, why would I? The war was over years before I even got there".
