The Marines want out of Iraq. They’d rather be fighting in Afghanistan. You remember Afghanistan? The country we’ve been totally ignoring since we decided to invade Iraq. The country the Taliban and Al Qaeda are taking over again. The country in which George Bush let Osama get away. Yes, that Afghanistan.
So, if the US pulls out of the Coalition of the Willing, then who will lead it? Togo?
