Troops already outnumber Taliban 12-1
• APThere are already more than 100,000 international troops in Afghanistan working with 200,000 Afghan security forces and police. It adds up to a 12-1 numerical advantage over Taliban rebels, but it hasn't led to anything close to victory.
Read a little history about the wars in Central America between world war one and two. At that time it took twenty formal regular military fighters against one terrorist/freedom fighter. If the number in Afghanistan is at 30,000 and we need 20 fighters, not support but fighters we have 300,000 times 2 or 600,000 troops needed. We did not win in Central America.
