OT: One man takes a stand against socialism

[quote=poorgradstudent]Wasn’t Obama supposed to pull us out of Iraq? That would save us a lot of $$$$.

Combat forces are scheduled to be out by Aug. 31 this year. Depending on the violence and relative stability, that date could be delayed. But unless there has been recent news that I’ve missed, that agreement, at the insistence of the Iraqi government, is still in place. 50,000 noncombat troops will remain. Most, if not all of withdrawn troops are expected to be redeployed in Afghanistan.

Under Obama’s plan, about 50,000 troops will remain in the country through 2011 to train Iraqi forces, perform counterterrorism operations and help with civilian projects. The United States has signed a legal agreement with the Iraqi government to withdraw all forces by the end of 2011, and Odierno said there has been no discussion about renegotiating that timetable.

U.S. commanders have already reduced the presence in Iraq to about 96,000 military personnel, Odierno said — the first time since the 2003 invasion that fewer than 100,000 U.S. troops have been in the country. The U.S. military presence reached a peak of 166,000 troops in October 2007.

One of Obama’s other pledges during the campaign was to wind down Afganistan. Instead we are getting sucked further into an unwinable conflict.

The Russians learned as did every other invading force since the year zero that Afganistan is not conquer-able. And now we are fighting the very troups that we trained to fight the Russians.

The losers in Afganistan wars include Alexander the Great, England, Russia, and soon America. The tribal nature of the people, and ridiculous terrain make winning a war almost impossible.

Unfortunately, the alternative is another 100,000 people on unemployment.
