Fighting in Afghanistan made the world all but a safer place imho. It will take us decades to defeat the taliban.
It's also worth noting that the Taliban expertly know how to manipulate American rules of Engagement, and the liberal media. I also dont see what the big deal is about the use of sensory deprivation torture at Gitmo. I don't belive in physical torture, except for extreme circumstances, but I have no qualms, with locking someone in a dark, room and making them listen to heavy metal.
