Title should be changed to "Sangin on verge of falling to Taliban, with the help of Obama".

I wonder if the author believes that our Community Organizer-In-Chief gives a rat’s hindquarters about the United States Marine Corpse,the Afghan people or much of anything except golf outings and vacations on Martha’s Vineyard and in Hawaii.

I’ve been reading a lot on what’s happening in Aphganistan ......’many’ of the Taliban have joined ISIS there because ‘they pay them very well’ so in a poor country as they are it’s no wonder, and also typical to change sides.

Obama has been told many times about Isis in Aphganistan, and like everywhere else they’ve taken over he brushes it off.

I also understand many of our Military leaders do not agree with Obama’s agenda on anything in the middle east wars. All Obama wants is “his way” which is to get rid of Assad in Syria...and let Aphganistan do or die. His decisions in the ME have nothing to do with their conflicts....rather how he can come out of his term unscathed by war....and he certainly has no concern for our nations safety.

Sangin Police Commander:...... “I have casualties lying around me; we haven’t eaten for two days.”....... “running out of ammunition”........”We only have the police HQ’S under our control and have a battalion of the national army with us. The district office and the intelligence directorate are under enemy control.”

At least 90 Afghan soldiers have been killed in recent fighting...........The fact that a senior Afghan official is addressing the president on Facebook reflects significant internal divisions within the administration,
