Graham: ‘There Will Be Another 9/11 If We Pull the Plug’ and Withdraw from Afghanistan

‘If you don’t believe me, ask the generals in the intelligence community’

EXCERPT: 
GRAHAM: "Right. Well, number of one, you may be tired of fighting radical Islam, they are not tired of fighting you. You might get a peace deal with the Taliban. The president put a hurting of the Taliban. They have about 30% of the country. 20% of the public agrees with them in Afghanistan. 80% do not want to go back to the good old days of Taliban where you kill women in soccer stadiums for sport and young women cannot ever go to school. You might end the war with Taliban, but Al Qaeda is alive and well in Afghanistan. ISIS is stronger today than they ever have been in Afghanistan. They will hit us if we leave. So I’m telling the president, I applaud you for trying to lower the cost. You’ve done a good job hurting Taliban but you can’t trust the Taliban to take care of ISIS and Al Qaeda. There is no substitute for American forces in Afghanistan to protect the American homeland from radical Islam. There will be another 9/11 if we pull the plug. If you don’t believe me, ask the generals in the intelligence community."
