The United States encountered mounting challenges to its presence in Afghanistan Thursday, as Afghan President Hamid Karzai urged the U.S. to pull back to military bases and the Taliban announced they were suspending tentative peace talks.
The developments come after two incidents strained relations between the two countries -- the inadvertent burning of Korans on a U.S. base, and most recently a shooting spree that left 16 Afghan civilians dead. Afghan lawmakers expressed outrage after the U.S. soldier suspected in that massacre was flown out of the country to Kuwait.

I would advise that they wait about a week...then drop all the ordnance on the abandoned bases - it would be similar to hunting deer over a corn pile.
I agree.
Pull back to our military bases in the US....
via Iran.
Pull the plug on this region and let these ignorant savages fend for themselves. Cut a Sherman Swath thru Tehran and set the Israelies up to crystalize the rest.
There is no fixin’ these animals.
Given what happened in Iraq, I’d say max 36-48 hours...otherwise, good plan.
Looking for the VC, we carpet bombed the s^%$ out of S. Viet Nam…..BUT the S. Vietnamese sat there and endured it, because they knew they’d be free once we destroyed the Commies.
The instant we left, they took their own lives in their hands (and near certain death at sea)… they headed for the coast in the tens of thousands! They braved the open ocean in unseaworthy craft on anything that would float, to get out of their own country, because they knew the Communists were on the way and they knew what THAT meant!!
Think of it, the S. Vietnamese for 10 years, willingly sat still for the most devastating, destructive, deadly and terrifying bombing the world had ever seen…but hauled a$# out of their own country the instant they knew NOTHING stood between them and the Communists!
Are Afghanistan’s neighbors prepared for the flood of refugees that will crowd over their borders when we leave?
We’ll see.
My theory is that Obama authorized the Afghanistan surge for 3 main reasons: to bleed out our troops, money, and ammunition; to make sure there aren’t enough troops in the US to protect us from a SHTF scenario here; and to provide both Afghanistan and Pakistan an excuse to drop their alliance with the USA (which was forced on them by Rumsfeld threats and which keeps them from being able to go full sharia).
So now Afghanistan is mad at us; the plan is working like a charm. But in order for Obama’s multiple plans to work we’ve got to get a LOT of soldiers killed so there aren’t many to come back to the USA and protect us here. Either that needs to happen in Afghanistan, or we’ve got to send our troops to some other Muslim hell-hole where they will be massacred in an effort that will ultimately install a full-sharia government.
Soros wants to exploit Uganda’s oil, and that Kony2012 video went viral... I wonder if Uganda fits the template...
And the first unit to pull back will be Karzy’s security detail.
Funny thing just now. As I was trying to read at http://in2eastafrica.net/give-us-more-government-posts-muslims-ask-museveni/ I was scrolling down the page and all of a sudden my computer decided to close down IE altogether. I got back on, copied the link and tried to open another window so I could post this post, and my computer again decided to close down IE.
I hate it when my computer gets a mind of its own. I’ll have to see if I can ever get into that site.
It was talking about somebody on March 4th saying that Musevini (the leader of Uganda’s current regime) should include more Muslims in government. I also remember seeing that Uganda has a 12% Muslim population. From a chart that somebody posted regarding how sharia demands Muslims push for sharia in their country, IIRC that level means they need to start pushing for sharia. I’ll have to see if I can find that post again.
Lets pull out and please do not leave any military stuff behind. If something we cannot take with us, burn. Let that crazy Muslim meet his fate at the hands of his so call loving people.
Either stick to the plan or do a massive pull-out pronto, now, not games where out troops are basically relegated to “a time out in the corner” while being targeted constantly. Bagram already has nightly mortar attacks. Once the weather gets better they are planning to unleash all they got on the base.
Here’s a post that gives links to some posts which give my reasons for having this theory.
Note: The “Muslim agenda” that all branches of Islam agree on is the destruction of the US and Israel and the institution of worldwide sharia. Everything Obama has done since illegally taking office makes sense when you consider the 2 goals of the “Muslim agenda”, which Obama himself said he would work on
Here’s the post:
And I should also add that the Egyptian ambassador in 2010 appeared on Arab TV and said that Obama had told him privately that he was and still is a Muslim who supports the Muslim agenda.
A post about that is at http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/bloggers/2850278/posts?page=61#61 (and the follow-up comments add more to that as well)

Ah, but that would fulfill Obama’s objective, if my theory is correct. Put the troops all in one area as sitting targets and then the Taliban can off a bunch of them at once - allowing Afghanistan to get out of their anti-terrorism alliance with the US (which was forced on them by Rumsfeld) and go on with the Muslim agenda of full sharia in 100% Muslim countries.... while at the same time making sure that the USA has no soldiers to send back home to protect our own homeland in the event of a SHTF scenario (such as an EMP attack from Iran which would be used shortly before the election as the signal for Hezbollah operatives to begin the communist-Islamist coup here in the USA. Or black riots instigated by the unions. Or an economic collapse caused/timed by Soros’ communist and Islamist allies in his stated goal of destroying the USA and capitalism...)
I think it’s time for America to get serious about what this usurper in our White House is really after. He has told the Egyptian ambassador that he was and still is a Muslim who supports the Muslim agenda and that after he got Obamacare passed he would focus on the Muslim agenda. The Muslim agenda that all Muslims agree on is the destruction of the US and Israel and the institution of worldwide sharia.
And Obamacare begins that sharia process here in the US. It has the government dictate that Christians violate their own religious belief, and it has the government favor Islam over “infidels” by imposing a dhimmi tax on non-Muslims while exempting Muslims from having to obey Obamacare (Muslims get an exemption for conscience but Catholics/Christians don’t).
See the last couple posts I’ve posted on this thread for more links that show why I think Obama meant what he told the Egyptian ambassador, and what I think might be the next moves in that process.
Well, our primary mission in Effin-ghanistan was to get Bin Laden. We’ve gotten him, so it’s time to come home. Iraq had some sort of structure with which we could work, and have some measure of success, but E-stan just doesn’t have that.
One of two things will happen:
All U.S. forces will leave Afghanifreakinstan and Karzai will either declare himself a member of the Taliban (if they’ll have him), and personally start lopping off the heads of ‘infidels’, or ...
Karzai will begin traveling with the Afghanistan Rugby Federation (which really exists) as a guest.
His head will anyway, being whacked from one end of the field to the other.
Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy.
He is safe in Kuwait, they actually appreciate that we saved their butt in 91. Several of my buddies back from the sandbox have good things to say about them. Plus, we still have a large number of troops there.
Ditto, pull out and let him see how long his sorry corrupt ass lasts afterwards.
They aren’t worth the dynamite it would take to blow them up.
It is a nice thought but the only practical way out is by road through Pakistan. We have thousands and thousands of vehicles in there. I don’t think an airlift would get it done. I also don’t think we should leave a damn thing there but maybe glass.
Another retreat for the United States from another war we should have never waged and another war we were never going to be allowed to win. A trillion dollars shot, lives lost and thousands maimed for life. Yet another American tragety and humiliation.
I’ll take your points....I like the glass part....I’ve said it before, nuke the cities, plains, mountaintops and valleys - all of them...one big glass mosaic....there is nothing redeeming to humanity there. Savages.
Afghanistan is the best argument on earth for starting a glass company. Couldn’t use the glass, though. For a long time. But, the location would be visible from space!
My thinking is that UNICEF or whoever should ship in about a dozen planeload’s worth of pallets with 50,000 SPF sunblock for them....tell them they’d better get crackin’
