The war in Afghanistan is officially over. Than You President Obama The longest war the US ever fought.

This has been a stellar month for President Obama, and for America overall. With gas prices dropping and the stock market rising, the deficit shrinking and Obamacare working, Americans can sleep a little better knowing they are more secure than ever. However, yesterday saw something that should make every single citizen in this great nation sleep even better: with a ceremony in Kabul, President Obama welcomed a formal end of U.S. combat operations in Afghanistan. This comes to us from Honolulu, where President Obama is currently on his Christmas vacation. Contrary to Republican belief, the President can be very effective while out of Washington.
How weird it is that Bush started a war while he was on vacation in Texas, and Obama ends a war while on vacation in Hawaii.
After 13 long, tumultuous years, 2,200 dead Americans, and a country brought to its knees in financial disaster, the longest war America has fought is over. From a peak of over 140,000 troops which have been stationed since 2010, the U.S. and NATO plan to leave just 13,500 behind.
