Today, President Obama announced the results of the administration's much-publicized "December review" of the Afghanistan War strategy. He claimed we're "making progress," but he failed to tell Americans the whole story.
- Civilian casualties are up. So much for protecting the population.
- Troop deaths and injuries are up sharply. So much for supporting the troops.
