Afghanistan Policy Tonight

At the Hot Air website, Andrew Malcolm muses about what President Trump is likely to say this evening about a new strategy for the war in Afghanistan. See what Malcolm writes about the history of this, America's longest war:
Obama was commander-in-chief for 50% of the Afghan war, but 73% of U.S. fatalities.
Barack Obama was not a popular commander-in-chief; he seemingly preferred American casualties to enemy casualties and structured the rules of engagement accordingly. Those rules have already been changed.
