They Killed OBL, Died as Heroes = Afghanistan Front Latest

Telegraph: Reports on the death of thirty US Special Forces troops in Afghanistan, there helicopter was shot down by the Taliban, of that 30 it is reported that 23 played a part in the death of OBL. In pure PR terms folks this is a disaster for the Oval, on one level there is the biggest losses of US troops since 2001, also the US Special Forces that took out OBL. Thus expect over time there to be even more critical reaction to the Obama plan to withdraw troops at the height of the fighting season next year, also the defence cuts that are part of the debt ceiling deal, as with the British Empire folks the US has found if your broke your power starts to reduce, at least we could hand over to the US after World War Two, the US does not have that luxury, the end of Empires folks.
