That’s worse yet. Something may turn up in the meantime. We may as well play out the damned hand. Perhaps Pakistan will break its own Taliban in the meantime. Our surge gives them that chance, anyhow. They won’t be facing a lot of cross-border infiltration.

I don’t consider this decision a surge, in the same sense of the Iraqi surge…it’s just not enough troops to hold the ground
