"Report signals US troop hike in Afghanistan; Top general seeks overhaul of war strategy" by Julian E. Barnes, Los Angeles Times | September 1, 2009
WASHINGTON - A top US and allied commander set the stage for a recommendation to increase the number of US troops in Afghanistan....
General Stanley A. McChrystal acknowledged:
“.... success is achievable and demands a revised implementation strategy, commitment and resolve, and increased unity of effort.’’
It's been EIGHT YEARS!
Can we STOP KILLING THEM NOW and LEAVE please?
************
McChrystal is expected.... to seek unspecified numbers of extra troops, and specialists said yesterday that his assessment almost certainly would lead to such a request....
The assessment reflects McChrystal’s belief that the US and NATO need to adopt a counter-insurgency warfare strategy that focuses on making Afghan citizens feel safer, military officials said.
That's easy: LEAVE!
Such a strategy would rely more heavily on the presence of troops....
NO! When TROOP LEVELS RISE so does the VIOLENCE! LESS TROOPS = LESS VIOLENCE!
Of course, THIS ISN'T ABOUT AFGHANS! This is about PROTECTING PIPELINES and DRUG PROFITS!
“It cannot be done without more troops. And General McChrystal will ask for them,’’ said a former senior Defense official who spoke on condition of anonymity, because of the sensitivity of the issue.
And WHERE THEY GONNA COME FROM?
The report was issued to NATO and to General David H. Petraeus, head of US Central Command, which controls forces in the Mideast. The US military, which considers the report a confidential internal document, does not plan to release it to the public, a Defense official said.
Yeah, what right do we have to know?
These things are ONLY being FOUGHT IN OUR NAME and PAID FOR buy US!!!!
McChrystal’s assessment came amid a series of challenges, including two consecutive months of record US military deaths in Afghanistan....
EXPECT a LOT MORE, 'murka -- until you get the BALLS to DEMAND an END to this s***!!!!
WHERE ARE YOU, antiwar movement of America?
