US 'not winning in Afghanistan'

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/7930865.stm

If you talk to General [David] Petraeus, I think he would argue that part of the success in Iraq involved reaching out to people that we would consider to be Islamic fundamentalists, but who were willing to work with us because they had been completely alienated by the tactics of al-Qaeda in Iraq
This has always been what US does, choose someone who would help them in their current endeavour, without understanding the result of it. The choose saddam and encouraged him against someone/something that they wished at that time, and later they would have to go after saddam.... This is what will happen again, they will support other islamic fundamentalists now who will turn against US in future, and then US will have to hunt them down again.... its a never ending loop that US military tries to keep

In any case, they are under wrong assumption that US is winning in Iraq it isn't
