“I think it’s a mistake to look at Afghanistan as sort of one eight-year war,” Mr. Gates responded in the same even tone he had used all week. “We had a war in 2001, 2002, which we essentially won. And the Taliban was kicked out of Afghanistan. Al Qaeda was kicked out of Afghanistan, many of them killed. And ...3 weeks ago -

With the surge now a fact, word is spreading fast about the wretched state of the Afghan police.

Rolled By the Generals?

Authority: 485
Did Obama linger on this painting because he knows at some level, as a student of Lincoln and the Civil War, that his Generals dont have his back? The other day, I raised the question of where the White House Flickr stream was going in creating a picture-narrative around the surge. The picture I focused on was ...4 weeks ago -
