Four More Years*

NATO, North Atlantic Treaty Organization, claims that the expected 2014 release of the troops in Afghanistan may be even longer. The shift over to Afghan forces may take longer than the time they expected.

It was the latest indication that the U.S.-led military operation in Afghanistan will remain sizable well into the next decade, despite plans to draw down troops and transfer responsibility to the Afghan government.

The end of 2014 isn't a deadline, it's a goal. Tons of families are praying that their loved ones come back home. They want this war to be over just like everyone else. It is sad that these troops have to risk their lives everyday and now to find that it may take even longer. This process needs to hurry up because everyday of them being their is a risk. I feel sorry for all the families because the holidays are coming up and those are the main times for family. Now one wants the loved ones thousands of miles away while they are enjoying turkey and presents without them. Also they need to take those troops out because 2012 is around the corner and no one wants to spend their last days at war.
