Bin Laden dead, let's leave Afghanistan
What does it mean now that Bin Laden is dead? "I think it definitely means that the last reasonable sounding rationale for the war in Afghanistan has evaporated," says Derrick Crowe, political director at Brave New Foundation. Now that enemy number one is dead, what scarce rationale that existed for the United States' involvement in Afghanistan has vanished, says Crowe. According to him, the US needs to begin actual political reconciliation and get out of the way while the timing is right.
