The President’s coming decision on Afghanistan
President Barack Obama announced yesterday that he will soon announce his decision on our strategy in Afghanistan. When he says he intends to ?finish the job,? what does he mean? Here to help us answer that is David Sanger, chief Washington correspondent for our partner, The New York Times. And to help us see what the consequences of finishing the job will be are Charles Sennott, executive editor and vice president of GlobalPost, and Nadir Atash, former Afghan government official and author of “Turbulence: The Tumultuous Journey of One Man’s Quest for Change in Afghanistan”
