Lay your political, social, and religious beliefs aside.

When do you think we will pull out of Afghanistan?
When do you think we will pull out of Iraq?
Will we ever pull out of either nations or both nations?
What will happen if/when we pull out?

Is there anyone who believes Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya were all launched with good intentions?

Fizzy Bubbler Can’t Be Stopped! asked:


That Iraq was because of WMD’s (just with bad intel), Afghanistan was about catching Bin Laden and Libya is about helping the poor rebels achieve Democracy?

foolishheartjam asked:


I know that as of July 2010, there are 81,000 troops in Iraq and 87,000 in Afghanistan. I’m looking for the total number of unique individuals who have seen duty in either theater since the wars began.

In the end, I’d like to compare that number to the total US population to see what percentage of the general population are Iraq and Afghanistan veterans.
