This has reference to a news in your esteemed newspaper that President Bush has approved 8,200 more US troops for Iraq and Afghanistan, on top of the reinforcements already made.
In fact, the deployments underscore the challenges facing the United States in both countries and further stretch on the already strained military. Still, the United States' policies for both countries are far away from reality. If the United States wishes to achieve the goal of establishing Iraq and Afghanistan as democratic and secure nations that are free of terrorism he has to withdraw his army from Iraq and Afghanistan.
Indeed, it is a fact that the conflict cannot be resolved militarily. Look at our role of combating terrorism in the northern belt of Waziristan. The example is worth following by the United States. However, if the deployment is part of the effort to speed up the training and expand the size of the Afghan and Iraqi forces, it would be nice development in the region.
