Last year was the deadliest year for U.S. troops in Afghanistan since 2002. Now, the Pentagon is close to sending an additional 3,000 troops there to counter an expected Taliban spring offensive.
The detoriating situation in neighboring Pakistan, with the growth of the al Qaeda/Taliban there, should clearly demonstrate that the Iraq debacle was the wrong war, at the wrong place, at the wrong time. But at least Poppy Bush is happy that his idiot son got rid of Saddam Hussein.
