Nate Anderson: Biden, end our endless wars – this veteran is convinced it's time for a change. Here's why

If you thought President Joe Biden’s posture toward endless wars was going to be different than his predecessors, last month’s airstrikes against Iranian proxies in Syria suggest otherwise.

As someone who experienced this firsthand, I’m convinced it’s time for a change. I joined the Army just after high school and deployed to Afghanistan twice as a Green Beret. During my first deployment, President Bush was in office and the United States had been in Afghanistan for six years. I deployed again a year later, this time during President Obama, and when the United States would increase the number of troops in the country to nearly 100,000.
