Publisher Description
I hope they have a good coffeemaker l worry about our strategy in Afghanistan, with its reliance on air strikes and increased conventional ground forces, as distinguished from the kind of small-unit Special Forces we need to fight against guerillas. The air strikes have hit far too many of the wrong targets, killing innocent people and inflaming Afghan opinion against us. Some of the air strikes are carried out by drones operated by "pilots" sitting in a trailer, some of whom work for twelve straight hours a day for 120 days.
