Barack Obama visits Afghanistan

Barack Obama, along with fellow Senators Chuck Hagel (R- NE) and Jack Reed (D-RI), traveled to Afghanistan this weekend.

Obama met today with Afghan President Karzal in Kabul. Obama has, in the past, criticized the Afghan leader for not doing more to secure the nation, but he was quoted to say that for this meeting, he would be doing more “listening than talking.”

Sunday morning, Obama ate breakfast with US troops.

Senator Obama has made Afghanistan a main focus of his strategy for the War of Terror.
