Gee, Robert. Last I heard Obama, not the military, was Commander in Chief in charge of expanding military operations in Afghanistan. The CIA may well feast on opium pie but energy hungry nations hope to feast on the main dish, a pipeline to the Caspian sea. http://snipurl.com/s0sd2 As I recall during his campaign Obama said Iraq was a just a distraction and we should have "finished the war in Afghanistan" to prevent the resurgence of the Taliban, and Al-Qaeda terrorist training camps. Now that we have oil production pretty much under our control in Iraq, we find out that the real reason we're in Afghanistan is that the "terrorists" are squatting on land right in the middle of the proposed pipeline. Silly me, duped by Bush in Iraq and now duped by Obama in Afghanistan.
