Because the CIA's poppy fields and opium routes are not going to protect themselves: Obama Plans to Keep Nearly 10,000 U.S. Troops in Afghanistan Through 2016 | 15 Oct 2015 | President Barack Obama announced plans Thursday to keep nearly 10,000 U.S. troops in Afghanistan through most of next year and 5,500 when he leaves office in 2017, casting aside breaking his promise to end the war on his watch and instead ensuring he hands off the conflict to a successor…According to a defense official, the president approved the highest number of troops requested by commanders, with the greatest amount of flexibility. Key to the commanders' requests was a continuation of the current counterterrorism mission, which Obama said would indeed be part of the effort after 2016.
