EIN News says, "U.S. President Obama Orders Rapid Drawdown of U.S. Troops From Afghanistan Citing success in the war against insurgents over the last two years, he calls for 33,000 'surge' troops to begin coming home, and says it's time for America to take a more 'pragmatic' approach to military intervention. (latimes.com)".
Great news! I guess all it takes is a desire to be reelected and the ability to listen to the American public.
We shouldn't have been there in the first place. It's not America's job to redesign countries. That's up to the Afghanis. If we later don't like their new government (or old government) posing a threat to the US, we defeat that threat by a head-on attack to the perpetrators, who are normally called terrorists. That attack need not involve ground forces. We kill terrorists with remote operations, such as missiles.
