After being side tracked into Iraq on a wild goose chase, it just seems that it isn't a lack of leadership but a very strong leadership desire NOT to win (to keep the US economy ticking over maybe?).
You'd think that the tactics used to subdue the civil war in Iraq (pay your own army, the Iraqi army, the Sunni militas and the Shia militas) would be applicable if the whole Afghanistan thing wasn't just a means to an end (Iraqs oil). Because world record Opium tonnages from Afghanistan since its 'liberation' isn't exactly anything to crow about.
