50,000+
the number of troops needed in afghanistan...soon...with maybe a total of 100,000 additional troops
these troops are needed to secure areas to protect the population from the taliban and enable building and protecting schools
pakistan is finally driving taliban out
the afghan war has been sucking hind tit for years and the strategy has been wandering
but support for the iraq and afghanistan wars is flagging, so should we just get out and let the region revert to instability and chaos
the war may not be just about afghanistan but helping pakistan get clear of al qaeda...remember pakistan has nuclear weapons and do we let al qaeda over run the pak government

Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
- -- Aristotle
Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
- -- The Buddha
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

why is it that we have a need to go meddle in other nation's affairs, mess up those nations and then lose interest and leave after numerous lives spent and trillions of dollars wasted...just to keep our forces trained

Jeah, why to look for Jeb Bush in the next presidential primary.
Bush doubled the debt from 5 trillion to 10 trillion.
Proving tax cuts work!
Bush asked for and signed for the TARP money.
The Republican senate leader backed Bush on this.
