I've come up with a conclusion. Al-Queda is very smartly working two sides of the coin. While the US is in Iraq and has fought off insurgency, they are doing the same exact thing in Afghanistan forcing our leaders to attempt the same tactics that were successful in Iraq in to Afghanistan. A new SURGE! While we are fighting that line, Al-Queda will move back in to Iraq causing a back and forth causing more pressures on leaders in the US and making us look foolish. Our leaders need to see what Al-Queda is doing. While we run to shore up Afghanistan they are going to, with the help of Iran, move back in to Iraq. Look I've always said we can't fight a war on two fronts without help and help we are not getting.
My question is this: Where is the rest of the world and their involvement in Afghanistan? The UN claims to support the effort in Afghanistan but not Iraq so why aren't the rest of the UN countries helping us out? They left us hanging and I think we as a NATION need to remember that. While we bail out the rest of the world and the one time we ask the World to stand by us....they turn their backs.
Everyone speaks a good 'UNIFIED WORLDLY PEOPLE' game but how quickly they are to leave America, and it's money, out of that conversation. The UN doesn't get most of it's money from the world they get it from Americans in the NAME of the UN.
