Will we ever leave Afghanistan?

We have been in Afghanistan since October 2001.  During this time many US soldiers have died fighting the war on terror, which being impossible to win makes this war pointless.  There have been several times when people realized that either the war was pointless or stupid and have wanted to get out.  One of these times was when Bush was President, but instead of listening to the people Bush sent more troops.  Recently a plan has been put into place to remove 33,000 American troops, about 1/3, from Afghanistan and to get all the troops out in 2014.  Will this actually happen?  I do not know; I hope it will but I am inclined to believe that the Government will find an excuse to stay.
