Reply #6: Not really - only undenied leaks

[karynnj]

The undenied leaks I have heard are:

30,000 to 35,000 troops (depending on which leak)
a goal to be out in 3 years, before the end of his first term.
a "new" strategy that turns progressively more over to the Afghanis.

If these are true, Obama did change the mission from McChrystal's but to something bigger than what Kerry was suggesting. But what? I guess we need to wait and hear what he says - and then likely wait to hear actual details over the next week.

(As to what I think, I think there really is no good solution and the reason why is Pakistan. I am not looking forward to DU/DK or anywhere else tomorrow.)
