More troops to the desert

According to the Omaha World-Herald, President Obama is planning to send 34,000 additional troops to help the Afghanistan war. Also in the article was the fact that we currently have more troops in Germany and twice as many in Iraq as we do in Afghanistan. That clears a lot of things up because how could we expect to reconstruct the country and fight the Taliban at the same time if we have fewer troops stationed there than we have in Germany? No wonder this war has been under so much criticism.
