Today it leaked out that President Obama has finally decided to send more troops to Afghanistan after months of dithering on the subject.
Obama has decided to send 34,000 more troops to Afghanistan months after the request was made by his top commander in Afghanistan.
However, Obama is delaying the official announcement until he gets a chance to talk with leaders in congress to explain his decision. There are several prominent Democrats in congress that are against sending more troops.
The president needs to decide if he is in this war to win it or not. Our troops deserve more support than months of hand wringing over the political implication of sending more troops. Let us hope that the president will enact the right strategies to allow our troops to defeat our enemies and return safely home.
