President Barack Obama has held a final strategy session with top aides to decide on whether to send more U.S. troops to Afghanistan. The President plans to announce his decision within days, according to the White House.

The session took place in the Situation Room on Monday with officials including Vice President Joe Biden, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Defense Secretary Robert Gates marking the ninth meeting.

Obama is nearing a decision on whether to add as many as 40,000 troops to an eight-year-old war that began after the September 11 attacks. This decision plays a vital part in Obama’s promise to the American people to end this war and bring troops home. Many Obama supporters are waiting on this decision to see if President Obama’s presidency is what they have been expecting.

    we never left germany and we will never leave afghanistan.

  • pynk

    I hope that God blesses President Obama with the proper plan to get out troops safely home & not have to send any more troops overseas. B/c we all know the Republicans are gonna be on Obama like ugly on an ape if they don’t like what they hear. Y’all know Bill O’Reilly will have a field day…

  • KeepNit2Real

    pynk, I’s shamed you drug God into Obama’s plans. You know the President has always been a pawn in a much bigger game.

    *pinches your nose*

  • drenk

    i believe his plan will be very similar to bushes plan of keep shooting muslims in the name of freedom and democracy, we’re neck deep in $h!t and i dunno if theres anyway out

  • DR.FUNK

    He’s trynna’ find a way to LOSE this war.Winning it is more important than anything he wants to spend money on domestically.The man has just wildly misread his mandate from day one.

    I heard he is toughening up on science, math and some other subject..aka education. Go Obama!!

  • http://deleted Simone

    I Thought All Of This Was Gonna Be Done With.
    I Remember Him Saying He Was Bringing Troops Back.
    Now What?!
    If AnyOne Can Shed Some Light On This For Me…
    Why Are Troops Over There Now??

  • KeepNit2Real

    Simone, it’s not Obama’s call to make. Those oil mongers have a goal. Daddy Bush started it and that war will not end until HE says it’s over. It’s above taking something that doesn’t belong to America….

    Once they solidify sole possession of the oil in the middle east, whether that’s by persuasion or aggression, it will be done.

    If not, it will mean doom for the U.S.

    Obama has nothing to do with this…he’s a pawn in a much bigger game. It’s an OPEC thing…not U.S. thing.

    Trying to continue a pointless war Bush started out of revenge is fruitless!

  • Tracey

    You know just because in laden fought of the Russian’s in the cold war in Afganistan, doesnt mean to say he was there after 9/11!

    Why were the Russina,s in Afghanistan, could it be to tapped into their untapped GAS supply to pay for their cold war against America?

  • A-Rab Baby

    oh my

  • Tracey

    Terrorist camps, training, funding and hiding happens all over the war. The cell centre ( the power fouse unit of terrorism) is Saudia Arabia, when Bin Laden was born and bred!

    You also have Egypt, Ethopia, Somalia, Sudan, Dafur, Jordan, Pakistan, Algeria and much more countries, so focuses soely on Afghanstain, it pointless and wasteful within itself. We are fight terrorist around the world, are shipping in more terrorist (with their arab and african oil funds) than we have funds or troops!

    Back again!

    Until nato, UN and America are prepapred to deal with saudi arabia and admit their gredd for ara oil and gas, nothing will change and everything else is pure GAS! Afghan gets their funding directly from Saudi Arabia!

  • drenk

    its crazy but the only other person who knows what he’s going thru is George Dubya

  • Dizzy McElroy

    He’ll do the right thing.

  • Txhustla15

    Afghan gets their funding directly from Saudi Arabia.

    Most of the Afghanis very self sufficient or live in extreme poverty , they receive no funding from the Saudi’s in the least.

    There is no solution to this war , which is essentially ongoing in Pakistan anyways where all the real issues lie. The only way to ‘win’ aside from this pointless exercise in nation building is to worry more about the myriad of issues we have domestically…

    There is no oil in Afghanistan morons.

  • KeepNit2Real

    Txhustla15….good point!

    If Britain and America learned to rely on their own sources of energy, there would be NO point for the war!

    But, in order to show just how big you are and how big your guns are, they are doing this. Other countries have already harnessed the power of clean fuels and solar energy, but not America and Britain!

    They LOVE using natural resources at the mercy of others.

    So there. lol…

    that’d be so nice! if we spent money on our country instead of on troops invading countries half way around the globe

    Hmm what does Oil have to do with Afghanistan ..and the complex problems of Iraq are a completely seperate issue, granted heh Oil is only the tip of the iceberg of what is going in Iraq..

  • KeepNit2Real

    Txhustla15, I agree with what you don’t understand in the connection.

    Think about this.

    Remember when Sarah Palin was running for Vice? Rmemeber how all of a sudden people who never knew oil was in Alaska foudn this out? Remember how all of a sudden Russia raised their heads out of the water when they talked about the oil reserves their?

    See, America never talked about Afghanistan because they weren’t the ones doing business with the OPEC nations.

    BUT, Britain and America knows there are more oil fields over there and Afghanistan doesn’t want them digging trying to find what could be there.

    It’s all a game of dominance and rights. America can tell their people whatever they want. But only geoscientists and geoengineers really know whats over there and this is who the gov talks to to figure out what the potential markets are for resources.

    WE NEED TO JUST BOMB THESE COUNTRIES AND TURN THEM INTO PARKING LOTS…THEY SERVE NO VITAL PURPOSE TO SOCIETY

  • drenk

    @ Please
    The point being:The Republicans need to get their heads out of their behinds and realize. We cannot help the Middle East until its people are willing to stand up to help themselves. Didnt we learn anything from Vietnam?
    ———————————————-
    i totally agree! why overthrow a government (taliban, saddam) when the people in those countries arent even united to try to fight for their own liberation! the only thing that kept iraq and afghanistan from breakin up into tribal/pronvincial factions was the brutality and fear that saddam and the taliban used to keep everyone in check!

    Sgt. Hickson…a lot of Americans have heard, and we understand truly and agree.

    We wish you nothing but the best and to come home safe and sound and live your life with your family and friends….just as you should be doing.

  • Please

    Its just like Sgt. Hickson said. After a time no one is going to want to fight. Its useless. Besides how does it look to our soliders. They go to a foreign country to build schools and houses. But the school their kid goes to in America lacks funding and is closing down. They are over there building houses while they one the left here is being forclosed on.

    Its really just that sad.
