But now we are not.

Fact is, we will never be able to get our troops out of Afghanistan, Iraq, or anywhere else, if we are going to worry about what COULD happen after we leave. There's always going to be a risk of issues developing, not matter what we do. I'm for getting out. Should have been done long ago.
