President Barack Obama has ruled out any strategy that involves a U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, despite the real prospects of losing the increasingly unpopular war.

White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said withdrawing the troops from Afghanistan was not “on the table” despite the deteriorating security situation.
“I don’t think we have the option to leave,” Gibbs said. “That’s quite clear.”
The top American war lord in Afghanistan, Gen McChrystal, has warned in a “leaked” confidential assessment that the US would lose the war without additional troops and changes in strategy, though Obama has already nearly doubled the number of U.S. Occupation troops in Afghanistan.
“I believe that the decisions that the president will make for the next stage of the Afghanistan campaign will be among the most important of his presidency,” the war pimp, and the U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates said, as he called for “patience and discretion,” urging advisers to secrecy, especially as decisions were being made.
“In this process it is imperative that all of us taking part in these deliberation – civilian and military alike – provide our best advice to the president, candidly but privately,” Gates lectured an Army convention in Washington.
Gates is right about the secrecy, of course, since the people shall have no right to know the truth, especially the ugly version.
Eight occupation soldiers were killed on Saturday after tribal fighters attacked two US outposts in Afghanistan’s Nuristan province, the worst US losses in more than a year.
