Desperate to flee in a matter of days blank and didnt satisfy all of the representatives complaints. And thats to be expected. Blinking also didnt give the representatives what some of them wanted to hear. A promise that the us military is going back to afghanistan to serve as a chuck on the taller bonds power.
