Gay rights are on my list, pretty much have to be, as some human beings are gay and human rights must by necessity encompass gay human rights.
The question of whether or not rights are recognized here or there and the question of whether they're a real thing...not the same.
How much time, and what cost, and what number of combatants and civilians lives....are we willing to pay for that, today, for anyone? The answer in our case has been fiarly large. If the answer is zero in some other case, or our case for some other people.... we've frozen the map and consigned all other nations and people and future ideas to non-personhood, with no inherent rights. We never believed it, it was all and always and just a geopolitical ploy.
No one, absolutely no one..who loves liberty, can be satisfied with us withdrawal in afghanistan. They can love other things more, and be willing to trade the liberty of those people for those things.....but...meh.
