“urge him to stop any military efforts in Afghanistan and rely on diplomacy first and last.”

“They will also call for investigation and prosecution
of U.S. officials,”

Regardless of innocent or guilt. You still have to have probable cause and last time it was innocent until proven guilty.

“proper care for American veterans and refugees.”

That is what is happening now.

“In every pocket of the country this month, they’ll tell Obama they want U.S.-Middle East foreign
relations to be replaced with diplomacy and peaceful solutions.”

What do you think we are currently doing with the other nations in the middle east right now?
