Elections increase Troop size

This article---->http://www.earthtimes.org/articles/show/264956,afghanistan-to-have-15000-extra-police-minister-says--summary.html discusses the increase in troop and police size in Afghanistan this year due to upcoming elections. The United States also issued 17000 more troops to Afghanistan in order to put down taliban attacks. This movenment and recruitment of troops, shows that there the Unites States has decided to focus strongly on security in a short elapsed time yet they do not concentrate on it or work on it in the long run. The de escalation of troops and increase in Iraq early in the Bush years shows that the agenda on terrorism is misguided and misevaluated.
