The empire expands -" 50,000 troops expected to remain for cleanup and protection operations"
So much for the idea of a free and independent Iraq. Going to remain a puppet state in all important particulars for a long time. I wonder how Obama thinks we can afford it.
"After pullout some U.S. forces still in combat"
There really isn't a lot of difference between the parties in the sense that all national politicians are in thrall to big business. In this instance Obama violates the trust of most of his supporters in order to kiss the asses of the "military-industrial complex".
And he's sending more men and women to their death in Afghanistan for no good reason. His only excuse for that would be to stablize Pakistan.
What a turd.
