"Obama's announcement [of the first phase of a promised draw-down] comes amid growing calls from an anxious Congress for an endgame in Afghanistan and appeals from the military not to tie its hands against a Taliban-led insurgency." BTW, what is the end game? Asking a bunch of illiterate thugs to leave us alone or else? In that case, perhaps a B-2 demonstration team should show them what the "or else" looks like. |
