US general urges need to show success as quickly as possible, says talking to people easier solution than ‘shooting them’
LONDON: In the past two days, US and British generals have laid out their thinking on Afghanistan, and in doing so have revealed just how complex and even muddled the effort to defeat the Taliban has become.
The latest to speak out was Major General Nick Carter, who will shortly take over command of Britain’s 9,000 troops in south Afghanistan, where the Taliban insurgency remains fierce. Carter said on Friday the US and NATO-led coalition, with nearly 100,000 troops on the ground, most of them American, was running out of time, with the need to show success quickly after eight years of war that looks increasingly bogged down.
