BBC News: Reports the following from Afghanistan, " US Army boss: Afghan pullout talk may encourage Taliban ".
Lets Get Real:
The Taliban from their view have already won, they have waited Obama and the US out, if the US leaves a small force in Afghanistan they will become target practice for Al Qaeda and the Taliban, thus another defeat for the West. The US and its Allies should just get out, there is no way they can defend a new Afghan Government, your in either in or out in Afghanistan, leaving a small force just makes you a target, just ask British Imperial planners of the 19th Century. When it comes to Afghanistan every great power thinks they are asking new questions, they are not, at the end of the day the British learned ONE lesson, keep out of having a ground presence in Afghanistan, make any threat aware that the Empire will react, either through small units taking action, or later using planes. Let the Afghan do their internal stuff any way they like, your not going to make it New York. The Oval should just get out and use drones, make Afghanistan a free fire zone, yes its brutal but it works.
