World Affairs Council Presents PENINSULA CHAPTER -- Strategic Objectives and Strategy for the US in and around Afghanistan May 13, 2009

Can we use the same strategies in Iraq in Afghanistan? Major differences exist. President Obama committed additional troops to Afghanistan because the security conditions had dramatically worsened. Director for Defense Strategy and Requirements on the National Security Council, Professor Kori Schake will draw comparisons and assess the realities of US objectives, the potential for valid exit strategies, and the American public's will to sustain a long-term commitment at this FREE event.
