the problem though was that obama ANNOUNCED the move to pull the US military from iraq, instead of doing it quietly.

Obama had no choice due to BUSH making a mistake. so let's be clear here Rbohm. YOU ARE WRONG.
Your statement is false , maybe not intentional but false all the same.
GEORGE BUSH SIGNED A DEAL LEGALLY BINDING THE USA TO LEAVE IRAQ. look it up dude.
as to afghanistan... hmm did Obama leave ? NO thus what are you talking about Obama never left
Karzai refused to sign a security agreement and left Obama no choice but to scale back .
Frankly if you have a solution to afghanistan let us know, because Trump promised to end it and is not and appears to have no answers either. it is not like either the left or right has a plan that they are hiding or would have hidden any time in the last decade.
Bush got us in and like every nation before us, there is no way to win, and no way to leave and look like you did. Instead the best we can hope for is pakistan deciding they want to become a true country of real law and real order.

bush may have signed an agreement to pull COMBAT troops out, but there was still ongoing negotiations for advisers to remain. obama wouldnt even try to make that deal with iraq, but i dont blame him on that because it would have subjected our troops to iraqi law if they went out with iraqi troops on training execises, and a crime was committed.
