Does the US suffer from an ego issue?
We see the US pressing Israel to make peace with the Palestinians, and we saw the US take on a central role in peace between Ireland's Protestants and Catholics. So why can't the US let the Taliban and Afghan government come together to find a political solution? Find (and kill) Osama Bin Laden and Al Zawahiri and let's get out of Afghanistan already. No way can we fix Afghanistan by imposing our will; just complete the mission to kill Al Qaeda's top organization, and call it a war.
