New Take on Afghanistan

The New York Times: Reports that President Obama might be having third thoughts about Afghanistan, 1st in the election of 2008 Obama as a candidate argued that the War in Afghanistan was the Jus War, 2nd President Obama argued that the USA needed to defeat the Taliban to beat the threat of terrorism from the region, now we come to the third idea pushed by VP Biden, the NYT states the following policy view of Biden, " to scale back American forces ( in Afghanistan ) and focus more on rooting out Al Qaeda there and in Pakistan.." In other words the Just War can be thrown in the bin, while you doing that throw the people of Afghanistan in to the bin. The Biden policy is based on the theory that Al Qaeda wont go back to Afghanistan, lets see the Taliban hate Western values, they hate the secular government of Pakistan, a close ally of the West, why would the Taliban of Afghanistan not take back Al Qaeda, a major threat to the USA and the West and its friends. Lets hope President Obama is not following a trend of selling out different Alliances based on the political pressure form his left, if this is case we do have another Jimmy Carter on hour hands, if your a Republican that is great, we have the 2010 Mid Term Congressional elections and then the 2012 Presidential Election in the USA. The Republicans should make major gains in 2010 and win the Presidency back in 2012.
