The Taliban have continued to have success in infiltrating the Afghanistan Police Force. An agent they had planted as a police recruit turned his gun on his trainers today, killing six United States soldiers.
Just three weeks ago, two US servicemen that were also training Afghan police cadets were killed in a similar ambush attack.
Of course the Taliban infiltrate the Afghan police force. The Taliban has infiltrated the highest positions of the Afghan government. Hamid Karzai is trying to make peace with his beloved Taliban. Karzai never says anything when the Taliban poison girls for attending school or cut the noses off of older females. Let a US mortar round kill a civilian and Karzai goes totally ballistic.
There are no easy answers with respect to Afghanistan. Leave would be a tremendous boast to terrorist activities around the world. It would convince Jihadist in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen and elsewhere to increase their efforts in attack U.S. interest abroad and here in the U.S.
As explained to me by a former missileer: "Nukes are NOT tactical"
