This BS counterinsurgency strategy isn't working, it's doing nothing but putting our troops at greater risk. We either fight this as a war or bring the troops home now. No way we put our troops on the ground at risk with this stupid strategy (it's been a Bush & Obama strategy). We either crush the enemy and deal with collateral damage, without putting our troops at greater risk, or bring them home now. Don't wait until July 2011.

I beg to differ. Bush didn't have an Afghanistan plan. He took all troops out to try to pacify tehe shiites in Iraq. He neglected afghanistan, he should be charged with dereliction of duty. How soon we forget Obama brought Afghanistan back up out of the cob webs. Iraq was outta control remember? How soon we forget.
