Marine Brigadier General Larry Nicholson said troops will build outposts in towns and villages where they will live among the people. Nicholson said in a statement the ultimate goal is the "transition of all security responsibilities to Afghan forces".
Generals are just the same in any country.A lot of boasting and little results on the ground.The old Soviet generals were certain to suppress the Afgan insurgents
and US generals thought the same in Vietnam and Iraq.Now Obama comes with the same failed policies of the past and praying for a miracle to happen.
The main problem with the war in Afganistan is the absence of its political aim and not the strategy and tactics to achieve this.
If the political aim was to capture or kill Bin Laden then there wouldn't be any need for huge NATO forces but instead a small effective force could probably do the job.
But if the aim is to prevent the Pashtun - Afganistans majority- from ruling their own land then any strategy adopted will surely fail.
Obama is repeating Bush's mistakes by supporting a corrupt and unstable goverment and effectively creating another Western protectorate for many years to come.
