President Obama continues to dither on providing more troops and has rejected all the plans put before him by the military for shoring up our effort to win the war in Afghanistan.
President Barack Obama does not plan to accept any of the Afghanistan war options presented by his national security team, pushing instead for revisions to clarify how and when U.S. troops would turn over responsibility to the Afghan government, a senior administration official said Wednesday.
That push follows strong reservations about a possible troop buildup expressed by the U.S. ambassador in Afghanistan, Karl Eikenberry, according to a second top administration official.
This has to be really demoralizing to the troops on the ground in Afghanistan.
