| U.S. commander: Afghan strategy must change |
| 2009-08-31 |
| The United States and its allies must change strategy and boost cooperation to turn around the war in Afghanistan, the commander of Western forces in the country said on Monday after completing a much-anticipated review. U.S. Army General Stanley McChrystal said the situation was "serious" but the 8-year-old war could still be won. He gave no indication as to whether he would ask for more troops but is widely expected to do so in the coming weeks. |

| #2 Word is 20,000 "international" troops. Guess that's more pleasant to the ears in D.C. than 30,000 US ones. |

| #1 Doesn't look like BUD BUNDY'S [infamous]PLASTIC/BLOW-UP DOLLS to me? CNN > MCCHRYSTAL: "WAR SERIOUS, SUCCESS ACHEIVABLE". GEORGE WILL, how ever, writes that the US should pullout. |
