re: #105 opnion

What is the bottom line here, do we increase troop strength & go all out to win, or do we conclude that the Afghans are backward primitives & that the situation is hopeless?
Obama embraced this as the “Good” War, what now?

He will dilly and he will dally for the next 3+ years while steadily raising the troop levels, although not to what the Generals want. He will carry it out just long enough so that the “Tet” moment happens only when a R occupies the Oval office chair. I wish I was wrong but I don’t believe that I am.
