Afghanistan War Politics

Write a paper for my course on Afghanistan … world politics?

After my introduction, I want to write a thesis (in short, as it may be) the history of our commitment to Afghanistan and why it was there first, then the situation Current. The questions I want to respond to my article are: 1) Why are we so involved in Afghanistan? 2) Why are we still in Afghanistan? 3) Why withdraw U.S. troops so hard? 4) What is the current public opinion of the war in Afghanistan? My teacher told us to require to enroll at least six articles of the New York Times. Can anyone offer some good articles you've read - especially those from before November 2009 28 - (not being in the NYTimes - a newspaper ..) or any other property, information sites on the war in Afghanistan? Thank you.

1) Your government was allowing terrorists "Training" under his protection. So we thought it was time to throw the Taliban government. 2) After removing the government, there is chaos. We need to treat to stabilize the region. He also became a bit of a relief effort (schools, food, women, children, etc) 3) If you just leave and the country is not stable, the terrorists come back and are worse off than before and we've lost American lives for nothing. 4) Most see it as a necessary evil. But people are increasingly annoying and I think we can not stay there forever. We need to support their government and out.
