They want us to get out of there before it becomes another Viet Nam. :rolleyes: If we do that no one will ever trust us again.
Agreed. They need to capture him (hopefully soon). I personally don't see how this will be another Vietnam. Certainly the government has learned their lesson on that. Let the troops do what needs to be done instead of trying to micromanage from the pentagon. (If, on the off chance this starts to become another Vietnam, then yes, get the troops out. No excuse for men dying simply on the whim of some general sitting thousands of miles away.)
