Thanks, I thought it was a good read too. This paragraph sums up nicely the current debate:
"The current debate is broadly bookended by two options: "double down" and send tens of thousands more US troops to mount a proper counterinsurgency, committing American resources for at least a decade to essentially build a nation from scratch, or walk back to a more targeted counterterrorism strategy that would conduct intelligence-driven attacks against Al Qaeda with minimal American "footprint." A third option, thought to be the most risky, is a hybrid of the two."
