I have no doubt that would be the intent but I am pretty certain that we all can agree that by the end we will have much more than the 35K troops currently stationed there. Where exactly the troops or money will come from is a whole other question. UN troops? (EDITED: My original statement would have been true with a Republican or Democratic preisdent but I edited it to take any partisan argument out)
