India-Israel selfishly restraining USA from abandoning Afghanistan

Article Source: Mark The Truthadvertisement
The British, German and the French military commanders in Afghanistan as well as of other Nato countries having fought the resistance forces in Afghanistan for the last eight years to subdue militancy are now having second thoughts. They say that force is not the answer and a political settlement through process of dialogue should be found to end insurgency. Despite rapidly rising number of Americans disfavouring war and opposing troop increase in Afghanistan and Obama's approval rating dipping, Obama Administration is still favouring continuation of Bush aggressive policies. Obama says it is war of necessity and has repeatedly expressed his resolve to dismantle, disrupt and defeat al-Qaeda and is still optimistic that war will be won. In pursuance of the stated objectives, Af-Pak policy was framed in February and approval for increase in troop level by 21000 given.

Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group
is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the
left, in their corresponding group.
Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the
number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative
one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their
relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

Zionism and Hindutva are global movements with a history of fascism and pro-imperialism. Israel which practices apartheid and commits atrocities on daily basis with no restraint on barbarity is called democratic friend by USA. Same is true for India. Both Israel and India serve as proverbial glove to hide the US hand and its hypocrisy.
This writer must be antisemitic, (sarcasm)

Food for thought - taking the battle to the terrorists' safe havens and destroying those safe havens is a logical course of action.
Between the U.S., NATO, and India, the fight against terrorists in Afghanistan and Pakistan can be won. Hopefully, the resolve exists to win it.

Count to ten, take a deep breath, and put it in perspective. If we lose 50 or even 100 U.S. troops per month in Afghanistan, we won't be leaving any time soon.
At the height of the Vietnam war, we were losing nearly 300 troops every week.
Naturally, there was a far louder outcry.
More importantly, the Vietcong hadn't killed a single American civilian leading up to the Vietnam war. In retrospect, Vietnam was America's last ideological war.
Al-Qaeda and their Taliban protectors are a far different story.
