:
At the September meeting of the Libertarian National Committee, the following resolution was passed:
WHEREAS the government of the United States should return to its historical libertarian tradition of avoiding entangling alliances, foreign quarrels, and military adventures; and
WHEREAS the stability and security of Afghanistan lie outside the jurisdiction of the government of the United States; and
WHEREAS the Libertarian Party recognizes that the only legitimate role of the military is to defend America against direct attack or the imminent threat of attack;
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Libertarian National Committee calls on the government of the United States to withdraw the armed forces of the United States from Afghanistan, without undue delay.

Today the Libertarian Party national website, LP.org, has posted a poll on their front page:
Should more troops be sent to Afghanistan?
Yes
Maybe
NoThe correct libertarian position is, of course, withdraw US troops from Afghanistan. This is not an option on the poll. Someone who holds the correct libertarian position must be satisfied with voting “no,” along with those who want to “stay the course” in Afghanistan.
Does this mean we can expect coming LP polls like this:
Should income taxes be increased?
Should penalties against marijuana users be increased?
If you are an LP member, you might want to tell the national office and the national national committee members (two totally separate entities) how you feel about this:
