Ok, but was that your opinion when we went to war with Bush to begin with?
I'm against the wars
TOTALLY!
But, as a person who studied military science and joined the army, I know that simply
telling troops to pack up and come home will not work.
The first thing Obama has to achieve before the US can leave the middle east is put on "a good face".
We need to put a "good face" on our departure; which means building a new political
platform in these countries that "allows" us to leave without guilt of abandonment.
Don't forget that a lot of Afghans and Iraqis joined our side.
If we pull out do we bring them to America or do we leave them there to be slaughter
as traitors for "The Americans"?
This has to be smooth, and you just don't have any more patience.
You used your patience up on Bush.
