Senator Mccain feels that Iraq was on the verge of collapse in 2007 before the surge . He then went on to say that the Afghanistan is not as tough "and don't let anyone tell you it is." We won't tell you it is. We will tell you however, that it's different. Iraq was invaded by us after knowing the borderless terror netwrok Al Qaeda were the real ones we were after. Afghanistan is and has been a safe haven for these Islamic Radicals. Originally it was the hide out for Osama Bin Laden, our public enemy number one.
A better viewpoint from the Senator might have been had looking at the original value for going into both places. Secondly, i wish he and others would speak of the need for stabilizing both regions for different reasons. In Iraq we are hoping to stabilize their political system and infrastructure. In Afghanistan we are looking to round up people who are plotting to kill us. Let's be fair about this point please
In keeping with fairness, Mccain's doubt that the Afghan troop surge not being enough in numbers is plausible. click here
