Manhattan Rep. Nadler: We killed bin Laden, now let’s leave Afghanistan
Source: Raw Story
By Sahil Kapur

Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-NY), whose district covers Ground Zero, reacted Monday to the news that the U.S. had killed Osama bin Laden in Pakistan. He called it a “wonderful occasion,” adding that the U.S. should now get out of Afghanistan.

“This, I hope, will now give us the impetus for withdrawing our troops from Afghanistan, for which there is very little use that I can see for them remaining there,” Nadler, a vocal opponent of the occupation, said on Fox 5 NYC.

1. That's the first thing I said last night when I heard OBL was dead.
We need to get out of both Afghan & Iraq AND Libia!
