Staying in Afghanistan past 2014, your thoughts?

Staying or leaving must be predicated on a clearly defined desired outcome, and then fully supported politically in either case. Until somebody inside the Beltway determines exactly what should be accomplished there, and what our capacity to achieve that desired outcome is, any opinion we offer will be based on incomplete information.

Obvoiously my emotions tell me no. But I would not like to see happen, whats happened in Iraq. We've spent the time there, and built an amazing foundation, I say we push it through until we can get them (Afghans) to self sustain. However with that, the questions poses...........Will they ever be able to?

Honestly I would be surprised if we do but I think it is more likely we will than when they were debating on pulling out of Iraq or staying. Maybe training their Troops in Jordan is the better way forward for not only Iraqi forces but Afghani as well.
