Seaver, I just want to confirm that you understand that my response to your last post is that you have it exactly backwards. The US is on its "last legs", it's military "broken" by multiple back to back now extended deployments, equipment for ground operations worn out, right down to the reserve equipment that used to reside at national guard armories around the country.
Military spending is unsustainable at present levels, and there is no petroleum consumption policy, and that consumption is unsustainable. as well.
Canada is in the opposite circumstances, in every category, much better positioned financially to increase it's force in Afghanistan, than the US is, but you tell, them "go ahead and pull out, it's of little or no consequence to us", when you should be on your knees, begging them to stay.
