Obama to dispatch 30,000 more troops to Afghanistan
An administration official said up to 30,000 additional U S troops will be in Afghanistan by next summer, raising US forces to over 100,000. The plan mirrors the 2007 Iraq surge, aims to secure population centers, and ties escalation to a notional exit strategy amid rising casualties and mixed public support. NATO allies may add 5,000 to 10,000 troops, with Marines moving in soon after the announcement.
