The Allies, Obama and Afghanistan

The New York Times: Reports on how Afghanistan is not just an Obama problem, but how Obama can make it worse, the NYT writes the following, " How do you convince America’s allies to stick with the plan..... when.....strategy itself is being reconsidered.... for the second time in six months? " This does recall when JFK was seen as weak by the USSR, thus you had the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962, thus far Obama has sold out Poland and the Czech Republic, has given the impression of appeasing Russia, has set the dogs on the CIA while the terrorists still plot to harm the USA and the West, and now we have leaks that the Obama West Wing political hacks think they can run a War by selling out Afghanistan. Even Jimmy Carter after the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan got the fact that he would use covert means to defeat the USSR, Obama is starting to make Carter look like a real hard edge realist. If your a suppose Ally of the USA do you trust an Obama Administration, they seem more than willing to sell out their allies, they just seem to prefer talking to totalitarian regimes like Iran and Cuba.
