Once M. Junaid Alam looks at the newer Cordesman CSIS report I sent him the pdf a few days ago, he might admit the same. That is if he and you and many others weren't interested in "tailing" to use a Trot term, a vicious Resistance with no strategy, no unified leadership, no program and, whose most nihilistic and couter-productive to actually getting the US Out, sector, the foreign jihadists, your sector of the "anti-war" movement has an, 'er "objective" alignment with.
