Task & Purpose | 'It's time to get out of Afghanistan' — Conservative vets push DC to end 'endless wars'
"When will it end?" asks Laura Hechel, a U.S. Army veteran. "Over 60% of veterans like me think it's time to get out of Afghanistan," says Adam Miller, a Marine veteran.
Those two voices were among five unveiled Thursday in a 30-second television ad that will air in Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania, urging voters to demand their lawmakers put an end to "endless wars." As part of that effort, the first order of business for the sponsor of the ad, Concerned Veterans of America, is to get America out of Afghanistan.
"We would like to see a full withdrawal of U.S. forces from Afghanistan as soon as possible," said Nate Anderson, an Army Green Beret and executive director of CVA, a conservative veterans' group. |
