“Winning in Afghanistan means that there are no terrorist groups who are able to control key parts of the territory or population centers there that could be used to mobilize resources, raise funds, use those funds to then organize, plan, and conduct attacks against us and our allies and partners,” he said.

Gen. mcmMaster that is the same losing strategy minus capture or kill Osama Bin Laden since 2001. I don’t even really think it’s a strategy. It’s a tactic?

In other words McMaster has NO NEW STRATEGY in Afghanistan. Just keep throwing troops at it.

It’s A LOT LIKE schools that are failing that say the answer to all their problems is to throw more money at it.

This is not good at all.

We don't need troops there, we have satellites, and drones, and air drop.

In the end, Trump will give H.R. his last star, then send him to Afghanistan. When he fails, Trump will hang Afghanistan around his neck.

The general made me uneasy the first time I heard him speak and the lack of confidence in him continues.
