Thomas Friedman's "No Boots on the Ground in Libya": And What About Afghanistan?

In an op-ed in today's New York Times entitled "Looking for Luck in Libya" (http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/30/opinion/30friedman.html?_r=1), Tom Friedman writes concerning Libya:

"Those boots cannot be ours. We absolutely cannot afford it — whether in terms of money, manpower, energy or attention."

I agree. Well said!

And perhaps he would now care to explain America's ongoing presence on the ground in Afghanistan.
