Once you know who you are and to whom you are linked, you will know what to do.

Epictetus

At some point, deliberation begins to look more like indecisiveness which then becomes a way of emboldening our enemies and allies and causing our allies to question our resolve.

Those are our two national security interests at stake in Afghanistan.
