Remember When Obama Removed The Troops From Iraq And Instead Put Them All In Afghanistan Because He

Do you believe there will ever be peace in Afghanistan?

What is your definition of peace?

One could argue that Nazi Germany was peaceful in 1935. There was no war and the Germans were living in peace and harmony with other Germans... but, you also have to remember that the Nazis were a Right Wing extremist party that used physical brutality to insure that everyone voted for them and combined that with intense antisemitism and state sanctioned murder. The "peace" in Nazi Germany was only a facade to cover up what was REALLY going on inside the country.

Afghanistan is much the same way. At first it seemed like Afghanistan was the good front in the war on terror as there was no extensive insurgency as their was in Iraq immediately after the fall of the Taliban. But, in recent years, violence has erupted between Taliban and Allied forces, Al Qaeda and Allied forces, and Allied forces vs Pakistani Tribal people aiding Al Qaeda and the Taliban. And on top of it, the man that Bush and Chaney picked to lead Afghanistan has proven to be so corrupt that his opposition won't run in a runoff with the accusation that the election would be rigged as Karzai should not have won the first election.

This in itself represents problems. If Karzai is corrupt now, he was likely corrupt when he was put in place. People don't just suddenly become corrupt. We likely didn't know about it because Bush and Chaney needed, or wanted, Karzai as an anti-Taliban ally.

If Afghanistan were to attain true peace, they would have to have confidence in a democratic governement that is free of corruption. And that is the problem. Karzai's opposition will not run with the accusation that Karzai is corrupt, which the UN, the US, and any other monitoring organization in Afghanistan has confirmed. This is only going to shake the confidence of the people in supporting a democratic system, as Karzai will remain in power and the corruption will continue to plague Afghanistan, making groups like Al Qaeda and the Taliban appear more attractive to the people who want their lives to improve.

Crushing the last remnants of the Taliban and Al Qaeda in the region might help, but the only road to peace will be paved by free and democratic elections that are not rigged to favor any individual. Which, will likely mean that Karzai and his backers must be removed from office and the Afghan government is completely rebuilt from the ground up.

Only in that we aren't messing with their protectorant telling the world we are there to hunt ISIS when in reality we weren't.The NATO players were actually teamed up with various terrorist organizations by globalist elites to try to take down a sovereign nation.Why?Because Russia was helping Syria build a gas pipeline to them and Merkle in the EU didn't like that. Germany and much of Europe purchase their heating fuel from Russia. They wanted Syria's for themselves.The Rothschilds concurred. Russia has been expelling the banking family's Central Russian bank. Putin desires to get rid of all Neo-Con NWO influence in Russia as they undermine governments.American forces were teamed up with Al Queda terrorists of all people. This was appalling to our troops considering they have been told Al Queda brought down the WTC Towers, building WTC #7, and struck the Pentagon. We are supposed to be eraticating them, not supporting them killing Syrian citizens and framing their own government for it.

Trump has been hostile to Iran even before he went to Presidency.For him, Iran is, in fact, a major sponsor of terrors in around the corner in the Middle East with a bad human rights. The problem remains as Iran has executed the most people, following with Saudi Arabia as well.Meanwhile, Trump is in good term with the Saudi state. Because Saudi Arabia and the U.S. are traditional allies, they will never abandon each other.Trump shows no respect for what Obama had achieved with its nuclear deal toward Iran at all. And the theocratic regime in Tehran is another factor contributing for the deep hatred inside Trump towards Iran.Meanwhile, Iraq is ally of the U.S., so maybe after it, he has allowed Iraqis to go in. Thus for those courts, it is fine to put them out of immigration bans.Trump has promised to limit the number of immigrants. I feel he is trying for worth it. But toward Iran? Really?

Many of us are old enough to remember recall 9/11. At that time, the Taliban had destroyed some ancient stone Buddhas in Afghanistan (mimicking the modern-day USA that is frantically trying to destroy history and tradition). They were also providing training grounds for Islamists. Despite the fact that the Mujahadeen had been trained and armed by the USA to harass the USSR, we decided to go to war with them. This was because several Saudi’s killed thousands of Americans when the World Trade Center was destroyed.In 16 years, nothing has been accomplished. It’s time to pull out. If another group starts chanting that America is the Great Satan (as they do in Iran), America can take action. But, what’s the point of keeping troops in danger when they are not doing anything?

How has President Obama kept america safe from Islamic terrorist?

I doubt America was ever the "primary target", just one of many. Don't forget the Boston Bombing happened on Barry's watch. America is a safe as it ever was. We are more likely to be killed by a nut with a gun, than a "terrorist".

If the U.S pulled all troops out from EVERYWHERE......?

As I'm sure you well know UN Peace Keeping Forces comprise of US and our other UN allies and remain in at least small numbers even after the main part of the war is over, like Bush already agreed to there in Iraq for two more years after the additional one already agreed to or three more years, I guess! Refueling bases across the border in allie countries, like Turkey are very strategic to more quickly get to the hot spots without having to fly from an aircraft carrier, coming at them from another or additional direction as it were. The short answer is that we are the world's policemen because we have the largest democracy, have the most power and even still the biggest pocket book, despite eight years of "W"aste Product and Big Dick "Haleburton" Cheney being the only "W"eapon of Mass Destruction to our economy and our own nation's deteriorating infrastructure which isn't getting the necessary funding that Iraq obviously is! There's only so much money even in America! Bush has been the best President Iraq could ever have dreamed of having, getting Sad-dam Hussein for his Dad's equally lousy administration 13-17 years prior and of course leaving Osama bin Laden, the true terrorist responsible for the 9/11/01 attacks on US still at large, while you unfortunately still are risking your life unnecessarily for his stupid war of choice! How many more Americans lives must be lost, 4,250+ and how many trillions of dollars are enough for this moron? 1/20/09-the end of an egregious ERROR! I support you guys, unequivocally, I just think you should be in Afghanistan looking for bin Laden instead of in Iraq for Bush's equally imbecilic Daddy previous arch enemy now long gone! I have and always will support the troops, not this moron of a President! He needs to pushed down Hussein's spider hole with Cheney and Rumsfeld and topped off with a few live grenades so you guys could return home for Christmas and some much needed rest and Obama could start cleaning up after "W"aste Product that much sooner and hunting down bin Laden!!! Godspeed and I pray you return home to your family safe and sound, ASAP! Thank God Obama won instead of McCain, and more of the same; or who knows how long you would have been over there!?! Again, thanks!

No.Trump is very skeptical of foreign wars. He always has been. He considers it a waste of our national treasure and manpower. He has spoken to this on numerous occasions from as far back as the early 1990s.I do not think he will commit troops unless there is a real reason. Pulling troops from the battlefield is his stated objective, and he needs to be talked into leaving some.But it is a complex question. Russia has been involved in Syria for decades. It has likewise been supporters of many of the countries we have problems with. So when we decide not to confront their involvement, it can look like collusion.But to allege a conspiracy, the action has to be criminal and you have to have guilty agreement and knowledge. Not putting troops in Syria is NOT criminal. Nor is there any criminal problem with agreeing with Russia on things; FDR met twice with Churchill and Stalin during WWII, JFK met with Khrushchev, and so forth. When Hitler met Hoover: 9 instances of dictators scoring presidential face timeSo I think a president should be allowed to negotiate with leaders of other countries. Don't call it collusion.

What exactly did Gaddafi do that he is considered so evil by Obama government?

I don't follow much news in detail. However, what exactly did Gaddafi do, that he was ruthlessly targeted by Obama? For 42 years he was in power and never before was he targeted. Then what did he do suddenly, that NATO and Obama were after his blood? I remember several years back ex-President Bush praised Gaddafi for surrendering all WMD. Since it was confirmed back during the days of Bush presidency that Gaddafi is now "confirmed harmless", then why was he still targeted by Obama regime? Bush clearly said that Gaddafi is no longer any threat to US and he is removed from the hit list since he surrendered the WMD. But then Obama took complete reversal and went after unarmed Gaddafi so ruthlessly? Doesn't make sense at all. Is Obama also now trying to do the same thing --- spreading democracy in middle east, liberation and nation building? Those are the exact things liberals criticized Bush for. Now Obama is doing it even worse than Bush did ---- while being financially broke. All I hear liberals say is, "Gaddafi was scumbag and he should have been killed right away". These are the same people who protested Iraq war for its violence and bloodshed. Funny how suddenly they change their roles and positions
