McChrystal's report- Blackfive Has The Analysis

A version of the report Gen. McChrystal made to the president has leaked and unsurprisingly it paints a pretty grim picture. It outlines what we need to do to win there. Now we will see whether the president follows up his many statements about this 'the good war' with the concrete actions and resolve required. McQ posts an excellent analysis of the report "Afghanistan - It Is Fish Or Cut Bait Time" at BLACKFIVE.

It is a rather blunt assessment - he needs more forces or we risk "mission failure".

Of course, Obama says winning is not mission success.

General McChrystal is Obama's handpicked general for Afghanistan.
