Those troops, earlier expected to number half as many by the end of this year, will remain in place after President Obama agreed last month to delay their planned exit amid concerns that a resurgent Taliban could escalate its offensives this year....
There are currently 2358 dead American soldiers since 2001. Fourteen years of deaths and for what? That is only the dead military from Afghanistan. Not enough blood flowing from Americans veins, huh, John?
