President Obama recently announced increase in US troops in Afghanistan, will it really help US win war in Afghanistan? Afghans perceptions of US leadership & US iteself are becoming increasingly negative ever since mid 2009. More than half (52%) of Afghans hold negative views of US according to Gallup survey. Similarly their approval ratings for US leadership have also declined by 6 percentage point during this period. Bot of these show that Afghans are losing confidence in US & its role as messiah. So to defeat Taliban/extremists, US will have to firstly win the confidence of the Afghan citizens.
How likely is it that US will eventually come out of Afghanistan as victorious?
Is it possible to win war without wining the hearts of Afghans?
