Less coalition surveillance in Afghanistan

US plans to pull 12,000 troops out of Afghanistan, as well as all 4,000 British soldiers by September. Does this mean less surveillance on the drug trade, and an increase in weapons coming in from Iran to support the resistance. Well unfortunately a recent bombing shows the instability of the situation in Afghanistan, and with less of a force in south-east Afghanistan, the funnelling of drugs, weapons, and chaos will surely continue. In my opinion we should pull back ground forces and put more emphasis on counter intelligence, and special ops to control the borders. Feel free to let me know what you think my fellow citizens of the world?!!!
