You use the term "troops" loosely. The "troops" in Afghanistan are largely Special Forces. These are the right people for that particular job. The "troops" in Iraq are NOT the right people for the job.

Can we trust nothing you post? You will do whatever you can to prove your point even if it means lying much like Bush did in the winter of 2003.
