I wonder who will be the last

American soldier to die in Afghanistan?   Last week there were six more Americans to die in a place where we have no possibility of achieving anything lasting. Six more families will forever have an empty place in their homes and a tear in their hearts. And nobody cares.  It's a few minutes on the news and then a commercial and it's forgotten. Why are we doing this?  The long term result is going to be no different if we declare victory today and come home or if we keep plugging along until 2014 or whenever. But the Department of Perpetual War will keep going or risk losing funding. So young men will keep losing arms, legs, vision, and lives.  I wonder who will be the last one.  How about your brother or son or husband?  Would you really think Afghanistan is worth their lives?
