Afghanistan's New Town Names

I heard the Germans want to pull out now. They have been lecturing the United States on how we kill civilians and don't know how to do air strikes properly. Well now they up and killed a whole bunch civilians when a couple of their fuel trucks got hijacked. They called in an air strike. Of course everyone now is dumping on them. Questions of overkill for a couple of trucks.

As I watch the news from many sources, it is clear the current administration may be at a loss as to what to do in Afghanistan. As for the campaign promises of getting out quick, it appears this is turning into a giant sinkhole. Pakistan is helping only to a point. I really don't see any clear exit strategy or progress being made. It's kind of like just holding the line. A general did say publicly that we need a new game plan over there or it will get worse.

From one that watched the Vietnam war on TV every night as a child (it was always the first news story on the evening news), I see a lot of the same stuff happening. Only this time the media does not air it. I wonder if this will turn into another forgotten war like Korea did.
