President Obama made good on his promise last night, at least verbally, by saying that the 33,000 additional U.S. forces he sent to Afghanistan in December 2009 will be home by September 2012. Under the withdrawal plan, Obama said that 10,000 of the forces sent to Afghanistan in the 2009 surge would be sent home by the end of this year, with the other 23,000 out of Afghanistan by September 2012.
