THE BIG STORY: PRESIDENT OBAMA SENDS MORE TROOPS, ENDS WAR IN 2011


After weeks of deliberation, President Barack Obama revealed his war strategy for Afghanistan last night while speaking at the famed West Point Military Academy.

“As commander in chief, I have determined that it is in our vital national interest to send an additional 30,000 U.S. troops to Afghanistan. . . After 18 months, our troops will begin to come home. These are the resources that we need to seize the initiative, while building the Afghan capacity that can allow for a responsible transition of our forces out of Afghanistan.”

The additional soldiers will bring U.S. troop levels to nearly 100,000 in Afghanistan with a price tag of over $30 billion a year.

TELL US: How do you feel about President Obama’s new Afghanistan strategy?
