U S tenure in Afghanistan mirrors Soviet 1989 withdrawal
The United States faces a prolonged Afghan conflict similar in length to the Soviet invasion. NATO, with about 100000 troops, battles a stubborn insurgency while backing a nascent democracy. Gen. Petraeus aims to deny al-Qaida a sanctuary and enable Afghan self governance as peace talks with the Taliban begin. The Soviets withdrew in 1989 after a long, costly campaign begun in 1979.
