his line of Tweets yesterday:

Hoping for the best in tonight's @realDonaldTrump speech but fearful that foreign intervention is only going to get worse. #Afghanistan

Steve Bannon brakes removed. Neocons feeling their oats.
The military personnel are the victims of bad foreign policy.

Sad that these wars the politicians argue for are unconstitutional yet we are told we are over there defending the Constitution.

Mr. President it's too bad you do not follow your instincts.

Planned in Afghanistan? What about Saudi Arabia??

What's wrong with rapid exit? We just marched in we can just march out.

So far very discouraging. Sounds like pure neocon foreign policy.

The promoters of war win. The American people lose. #Afghanistan

Remember: there was no al-Qaeda until our foolish invasion of Iraq based on neocon lies.

The American people deserve to know when we are going to war and MUST give you permission through their representatives in Congress!

Emphasis on Pakistan just means the war going to be expanded!

Emphasis on military alliance with India may well lead to more vicious war between nuclear states Pakistan and India. Smart?

Terrorism is one thing, but what about massive collateral damage? Killing civilians creates more terrorism. Round and round we go.

Shorter Trump: "Afghanistan: give us your minerals!"

Nothing new. More of the same. Obama was wrong. This is NOT the good war. Sooner we get out the better.

More killing is not the road to peace.

The emphasis on the "grave danger" of terrorism is greatly exaggerated. But more intervention surely creates more terrorism.

How many Americans are really sitting around worrying about an Afghan terrorist coming over and killing them?
So many of our problems are self-inflicted by a deeply flawed foreign policy. US troops - and the family members - suffer the consequences.

Big issue of the night: US expanding the war into Pakistan. Could precipitate more conflict between nuclear India and Pakistan.

If Americans are tired of 16 year war, how will they feel about another decade or two? When will they wake up?

Our ultimately "hasty" departure from Vietnam finally ended a lot of grief. Even if it came way too late.

Beware! @LindseyGrahamSC loves Trump's speech! Why are arch-neocons celebrating so much? Very telling!
There's nothing hasty about ending America's longest war. @POTUS bowed to military-industrial establishment; doubled down on perpetual war.
