VG- I take your position to be that of "too little, too late". I'm not sure a buildup of troop strength will solve the problem at this point. It may have several years ago but I get the impression everyone is just biding their time now. Even Karzai's gov partners (I suspect) will knife him at the first opportunity. The "hearts and minds" battle was lost.
Pushing the Taliban into the mountains wouldn't even have been a victory. They can wait. It is their home.
