What's Washington's Interest in Afghanistan?

What precisely is Washington's interest in our policy towards Afghanistan at the moment? You just want to be done with it? Or is there actually some lingering interest? Well, that's a good question. I think that was the question that was wrestled with for many years during the later stages of the war. What actually are we doing in Afghanistan? What is the purpose? And it became in some ways kind of a self justifying occupation,. Where because we're there, we need to maintain our investment.
