The problem isn't that he wants the war over in three years. Who doesn't?! Even sooner would be better.
But letting the Taliban/al Qaeda know exactly how long they need to lay low and rebuild in secret is an asinine plan. They will stockpile weapons and train, waiting until right before our next presidential election and then unleash holy hell on our retreating soldiers to declare victory. And they will be right.

Obama would have sent a handwritten note to the Germans warning them about the D-Day invasion had he been given the chance.

I doubt if they even bother to lay low. This just gives them an idea of how long they have to last and when to start their major offensive.
