America is definitely dependent on foreign oil, though not as much as some allies in Europe. American defense of Mideast oil thus gives it leverage over Europe.
Time to leave? Yes, absolutely. Is it possible? lol

American troops will continue to remain in Afghanistan through the end of Barack Obama's presidency, prolonging a 14-year conflict that Obama pledged to wrap up by 2014.
Obama announced on Oct. 15 a new White House plan that lays out a "modest but meaningful extension of our presence" in the country, the second time the administration has stalled withdrawal this year alone.
Are these part of the 50 Obama advertised to the enemy that we were sending in? If so I do not have good things in my vocabulary for what I would like to see done with this president. Complete failure and embarrasses us all to other nations.
Hit the road Barry.
Islamic terrorists sure do cost us (and the world) a lot.
It is for each nation to decide how much they want to invest in it.
