"Withdrawing" AKA: Displacing

I'm sure these "withdrawn troops" will end up in Yemen, Libya, Syria, Iran or Pakistan sooner than later.

withdraws goverment troops while he beefs up private military contractors. Obama, Hope and Change

I think there will be troops coming home...but in my opinion this is just going to be for show and tell...election season right around the bend and troops coming home all over the news will make Obama a hero.

I seriously doubt that it will last long...if Obama is re-elected then you can almost bet the number of troops that come home will be nothing compared to the troops that are sent back over.

Troops will come home because it looks good...nothing more IMHO.

He needs this 30,000 troops so he can invade Libya, Syria and Yemen in the coming months

UK news said 30,000 troops....but they did start with a figure of 10,000 last week

I'm just speculating but I found myself wondering if this sudden desire to withdraw is in response to Ron Paul becoming more popular? A lot of people are tired of our foreign policy lately and Dr. Paul's intent to bring our troops back home is very appealing to a lot of people.

Obama stating his intent to bring back our troops might just be a ploy to get votes, many of them being stolen from Dr. Paul.

Again it's just speculation on my part. I find it all sort of funny, Obama hasn't really seemed interested in stopping the wars until it's time to start preparing for the next election.
