Laura Ingraham On Afghanistan: People Want ‘Drain The Swamp’ Not ‘Clear The Desert’

It’s more than desert. There are vast poppy fields too.

Afghanistan is the Graveyard of Empires. Why are we staying?

(From The Daily Caller)

Editor-in-Chief of Lifezette Laura Ingraham is skeptical of winning victory and securing peace in Afghanistan and said we are likely to be stuck there through the rest of our lifetime.

“We’re going to be there through our lifetime. I mean, that’s clear. We’re not going anywhere. We’re going to be in Afghanistan until we probably take the long dirt nap ourselves. Is that really what the American people thought they were getting? They thought they were going to get drain the swamp, not clear the desert,” she said Tuesday on “Fox and Friends.”

Ingraham is skeptical the U.S. can achieve victory with the current number of troops, when 100,000 troops couldn’t get the job done.
