USA to leave afghanistan fighting in 2013.
« on: February 01, 2012, 05:48:21 PM »
Panetta announced

US moving from battling to training then leaving in 2014.

1st time the USA has put a timeline. 
keeps obama's promise to remove our men by 2014.

Does it cut off repubs at the knees who say we need to leav afghanistan?

This is going to have a post-Vietnam effect on our nations military spending and weapons development/modernization. This may leave this nation in a bad place when another hotspot flares up whether it's one we start or one that drags us in.

12+ years of major involved war/nation building on 2 separate fronts will cost us more than money and lives.

and the #1 reason Repubs hate Ron Paul?   Cause he doesn't support bombing the fck out of Iran to start a war to replace the 2 that are ending.

Yes, always tell the enemy exactly when we're getting out of Dodge.  Brilliant.

This is just like Vietnam, there is no real enemy.  Quicker we're out, the better.
