البعد الافغاني في الانتخابات الأمريكية

Abstract

After more than a decade since the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan, which has turned into the longest war in the American history, the Americans found that this war; despite the financial loss to the United States, and the legacy of the scourge on the people of Afghanistan, and the confusion it caused in the province and the neighboring countries of Afghanistan, has become more like a a forgotten war and a problem hard to solve.. Despite the predominance of economic issues on anything else in the interests of the American voter, the victory of President Barack Obama's second term was among its credentials. The success in the so-called war on terrorism and the assassination of al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, and the promise to withdraw U.S. troops from Afghanistan at the end of the year 2014, as happened in Iraq, when Obama fulfilled his first campaign's promises and completed the withdrawal of the troops from it in late 2011. The picture of the future remains wrapped in a lot of mystery, for the war in Afghanistan put the Americans in trouble strategically, and left Afghanistan a failed state, and created economic problems and additional needs after the withdrawal, this long war; even if it ended in the customary military sense on the ground, it left many social problems inside the U.S. such as many of the military returnees, including the handicapped and war-wounded and those who have moved toward drug addiction, as well as what the U.S. Treasury will suffer from costs to absorb the future effects of the current war that would almost outweigh the costs of the war itself.
