Austin Scott Miller
WASHINGTON, June 19 (Sputnik) – The nominee to take over as commander of the US-NATO mission in Afghanistan, Lt. General Austin Miller, said during his confirmation hearing on Tuesday that withdrawing forces from the war-torn country would be inimical to American national security interests.
“My personal opinion is that withdrawal would have negative effects for protecting our vital national interests,” Miller told the Senate Armed Services committee.
Last month, US President Donald Trump nominated Miller to replace Gen. John Nicholson to command US Forces-Afghanistan.
Miller admitted that the United States needs to leave Afghanistan at some point but must do it in a proper manner.
He also said the recent ceasefire announced by the Afghan government is the first step towards jump starting a peace process with the Taliban.
On June 7, Afghan President Ashraf Ghani announced a temporary unilateral ceasefire with the Taliban for the period between June 11 and June 19 to mark the end of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan. Later in June, the Taliban decided to declare the three-day ceasefire marking the end of Ramadan.
A phased military withdrawal,
((from war-imposed Afghanistan)), under a peace conference and agreement in presence of some major Islamic countries, ((such as; Turkey, Iran; Indonesia…etc)), would definately help smooth out the way towards complete cessation of hostilities.

*Not to mention; the presence of numerous English-stationed agents and mercenaries along the “Af-Pak”
artificially-recognized

*Top it off:
=======
Prolonging the imposed warfares in Afghanistan, may trigger
future unpredictable and uncontainable uprisings
in
neighboring Pakistan- which then; you may be forced to face a real serious test
of
time against around two
hundred millions
of
deprived souls.
And above all:
==========
A COMPREHENSIVE PEACE DEAL
WILL DEFINATELY BOLSTER YOUR POSITION IN FAVOR OF MUCH MORE VALUABLE INTERNATIONAL ECONOMIC DEAL AGAINST CHINA AND INDIA.
CURRENTLY YOU ARE OBVIOUSLY HIGHLY-OBLIGATED AND, IN FACT, A HOSTAGE TO THEIR NONSENSICAL DEMANDS AND FAVORS- THEIR ROGUE ELEMENTS COULD EASILY STIR REGIONAL TROUBLE UNDER ANY ONCOMING POLITUCAL PITS AND RIFTS.
As far as,
I am
concerned:
========
*IT
IS ENOUGH OF
SAVAGERIES
AND
ATROCITIES
IN
