The usual SysAdmin shortage: no enough trainers to go around

Per an NYT story, the usual suspect:

The Pentagon, in an official assessment of the Afghan mission released last week and current to the end of March, said that “one of the most significant challenges to the growth and development” of the Afghan security forces was the shortage of trainers.

So the US is forced to surge an additional 850 trainers to go with the 1,500-or-so provided by allies.  This is beyond the 30,000 troops surged previously.

That's a telling stat, is it not?

One has to wonder what Obama means when he tells Karzai and the Afghans that "We'll stand behind you" and then in the same speech tells his Left base that he'll stick to his calendar schedule on leaving . .

Or . . What policy are we going to use?

So if the current administration advisers get their way, and we wreck capitalism, then what wealth source will help the gap?

Just found your book, "New Map"...reading it now, very stimulating for thought and view.
