One of the confusing things about Obama's hesitancy about adding troops to Afghanistan is that many thought this was settled back in March when the Administration announced a comprehensive new strategy focusing on Counter Insurgency.
Turns out, Obama and his team had no clue what they were agreeing to at the time.
Last line of that post says it all - "criminal incompetence".
I've noticed that there are reports of morale in Afghanistan cratering. I can tell you from a combat veterans' standpoint, that a lack of information will crush your morale. If your commander-in-chief doesn't know what he wants to do, how the hell do the commanders communicate that to the troops?
They are so fucked. Maybe this is what Napolitano's worried about. I would be too.
