Yes. This is exactly out of the Obama playbook.
Obama pretended.
I doubt it. Obama pulled out too many of our troops at once and put the locals in charge. That left many of our troops to be murdered by the locals they were supposed to be working with. Obama also had rules of engagement that did not allow our soldiers to do anything except be sitting ducks. He went after terrorists the same way he secured the border, ignoring what needed to be done in order to allow the terrorists to regain strength.
He also turned a blind eye to all the heroin coming from there, now it is out of control here. Mexico was so encouraged watching that they now grow quite a lot of heroin as well.
The terrorist problem and heroin problem that have been ignored for years have to be dealt with at the source/s.
I am willing to wait and see how this goes before weighing in on it. I do have 2 close family members that served in Afghanistan (and Iraq) and they have told me we need to take out the terrorists that now have another foothold in Afghanistan. I will listen to them before most others about what is going on with our military.
