War

Defense Secretary James Mattis to senators: 'We are not winning in Afghanistan' - UPI.com
UPI reports: "Defense Secretary James Mattis had strong words for a Senate committee Tuesday: The United States and its allies 'are not winning in Afghanistan right now.' Mattis' comments to the Senate Armed Services Committee come one day after he criticized the House's Armed Services Committee for not providing enough military resources. But regarding problems in Afghanistan, Mattis pledged to the Senators 'we will correct this as soon as possible.'"

Comment: I find it incredible that the American people can be so complacent and apathetic as to accept being at war for well over a decade without a hint of victory.
