Encouraging Words from Afghanistan...

Just received email from Michael Yon, who's reporting from Afghanistan.  For years he's been very pessimistic about the progress of the war in Afghanistan, and very critical of the prosecution of the war there.

Today he posts some very different impressions.  He's feeling downright optimistic now that Obama has committed to the surge.

In my own experience, Yon is the most competent, sober, and best-informed source of information on our wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.   Reading his words today, I'm feeling very relieved.  I sure hope he's right (again)...
