There is no reason to keep American troops in Afghanistan.

The USA has overstayed it's welcome. I would think bombing a hospital is enough for any President to bring his soldiers back to USA soil.

The above statement by me was made before the announcement by the President. He once again bows to the military and allows more American troops to remain in Afghanistan. 

My opinion remains the same. The USA is unneeded in Afghanistan.

These announcements by President Obama are made as if there was a vacuum of power in the region. The Afghan region is one of the most heavily militarized regions in the world, save the Pacific Ocean.


I think my point of view is supported and self explanatory. The USA military gets that 'warm and fuzzy' feeling of knowing what every country in the region is doing.

Troops out now!

That warm, fuzzy military feeling is in anticipation of action and potential war. There is no productive reason for it and it inhibits peace!

Peace is a legitimate goal and it is time it is viewed as such.

The USA military did nothing to end the poppy economy in Afghanistan. How is it that fifteen years, nearly two decades, a generation of Afghan people, is considered an important milestone for the USA military to continue?

The United Nations Security Council needs to view the USA military for what it is, an autonomous influence in global instability. I remind there are now two major illegal and immoral wars that have been conducted by this lonely superpower; one in Vietnam and one in Iraq. Both have left the region in shambles and increased instability in a global profile.

Which country in the Pacific is sited by North Korea as it's reason to continue to escalate it's nuclear profile? A simple speech by a Neocon President caused North Korea to remove it's seals on what was a viable non-proliferation agreement. It is time the USA military is viewed as a danger to global stability and not an enhancement. The simple change of President has brought about hubris filled political wars.
