Afghanistan, Iraq looking more alike KABUL — For many Americans who are weary of Iraq, Afghanistan is the “good war” where the U.S. and its European allies are destroying what’s left of al- Qaida and the Taliban.But “bad” Iraq has more in common with “good” Afghanistan than people sometimes realize. Both have evolved into classic counterinsurgencies with a “clear and hold” strategy for providing security; both show the benefits of a military surge; and both run the risk of failure because of weak and corrupt host governments. |
