President Trump is going to address the nation tonight regarding Afghanistan. The address comes at the end of a detailed policy review of America's position in that nation. According to reports, the President is going to authorize sending another 4000 troops to Afghanistan, but it would not surprise me if the media got the story wrong.
After more than a decade and a half, it's time to change how the USA deals with the issue of Afghanistan. We cannot follow the Obama policy of putting men in while announcing their imminent withdrawal. If we are going to stay, then we need to try to win. Hopefully, the days of equivocation are over. We cannot just let our soldiers sit in the line of fire as targets without having a plan to provide them a path to victory.
