I love this quote...
Quote: "McKiernan requested the additional 20,000 troops be sent to fight the increasing violence by the resurgent Taliban forces in the southern and eastern parts of the country."
And we're fighting the Taliban why? Are they a threat to our national security?
Couple this with Obama's promise to redeploy troops from Iraq to Afghanistan and it's a done deal. But I'm sure this is a "just" war now that Obama is taking the reins, right?
He's going to perpetuate the Bush Doctrine. Told ya so...
