Wednesday Links – Afghanistan Edition

Posted by Chris Moody

Today marks the eighth anniversary of the U.S. war in Afghanistan. Cato foreign policy experts have been following and analyzing the war since the beginning. Here’s a round up of their assessment thus far:

• Why we must narrow objectives in Afghanistan. Before implementing a new strategy, we must first define victory.

• Why the Afghanistan strategy does not require more troops.

• Once we have defined our objectives, we need to follow an exit strategy.

• Why Pakistan also plays a crucial role in this effort.

• In today’s podcast, foreign policy analyst Malou Innocent discusses the future of policy in the region.
