At a House Armed Services Committee Hearing on February 3, 2010, U.S. Rep. Todd Russell Platts (R-PA) declared the corrupt Afghan national security forces "one of the lynchpins to the success we're going to achieve" in Afghanistan. Platts should request a copy of the report obtained by NBC News which was prepared for General Petraeus on the Afghan National Army (ANA). The report details the massive shortcomings of a corrupt and often truant ANA, saying that "corruption, nepotism, and untrained/unmotivated personnel make success all but impossible."

  • The best thing that we can do for our troops is to BRING THEM HOME. This unconstitutional war needs to end. There is no "winning" in Afghanistan or Iraq. The puppet we placed in charge of Afghanistan is a criminal and NOT respected by the citizens of Afghanistan.

  • Great clip that gets straight to the point.
