NATO member countries apparently not toeing US line

According to France Press, Bentis Cradock, Commander of NATO has said that European countries would hardly adhere to Obama's request to maintain military presence in Afghanistan. He asserted that the European countries were themselves grappling with huge economic crisis and not able to undertake an extra burden of military expenditure in Afghanistan. According to B. Cradock, Canada and Holland, who are second in terms of military presence in Afghanistan, would merely maintain to have their forces in Afghanistan for another one years.

After that, they are going to leave Afghanistan. He said only six out of thirty-six NATO member countries are willing to positively respond to the demand of Obama for military beef-up in Afghanistan. The rest are willing to discontinue their mission in Afghanistan due to internal economic problems.

A US think tank, the politico, which publishes its analysis in all mainstream magazines and papers says:" if Obama intends to send troops from Iraq to Afghanistan which, he thinks, will curtail military expenditure in Iraq and will enable him to continue the war in Afghanistan unabated, it will be but his mistake. The Politico believes that currently only Taliban are fighting against the foreign forces but still they have the upper hand in the fighting.

If US sends more forces to Afghanistan, it will create awareness among the Afghans that the US was intending to occupy Afghanistan for a longer period. This will add to the Taliban power and we know from the historical events of Afghanistan and the traditions of the Afghans that populous upheaval may mount against the foreign forces. The Empire of Obama will fall smithereens like other empires crumbled in Afghanistan.

Observers believe that USA and her allies including NATO, resorted to every tactic and brutality to quash its armed opposition during the past seven years. However, they were not able either to bring Afghanistan under her sway or eliminate or weaken the current resistance movement of the Afghans. It will be impossible for them to successfully control Afghanistan, considering the mistrust which is existing between USA and her allies and in the view of the fact that many of them do not want any more to remain entangled in Afghanistan. They are trying to pull out of the country so it will be hardly possible for US to face the resistance movement successfully.

The American announcement to send 30,000 more troops to Afghanistan is possibly a war gimmick because other NATO member countries have not pledged to send even ten soldiers to Afghanistan in 2009. To compensate for this failure and at the same time, play out the despondency attached with this obvious fiasco, the USA has launched propaganda of dispatching thousands of her troops to Afghanistan. The American claim to send thousands of her troops to Afghanistan is also doubtful from another perspective because American themselves are trying to devolve the responsibility of war on the shoulders of the Afghans and are resorting to the creation of tribal militias.

This is the repetition of the Russian replica, as she saw that an unavoidable perdition was waiting her in Afghanistan, she turned to creating militias. Traversing the same pattern, the USA, in a way, is trying to avoid a complete fiasco.
