Afghanistan Confusion Watch - The Civ-Mil Version
Posted by Michael Cohen
Over the weekend we had more evidence that the White House and the military are not on the same page on Afghanistan - and apparently things are getting kind of ugly:
Senior White House advisers are frustrated by what they say is the Pentagon’s slow pace in deploying 30,000 additional troops to Afghanistan and its inability to live up to an initial promise to have all of the forces in the country by next summer, senior administration officials said Friday.
Tensions over the deployment schedule have been growing in recent weeks between senior White House officials — among them Vice President among them Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr., Gen. James L. Jones, the national security adviser, and Rahm Emanuel, the White House chief of staff — and top commanders, including Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal, the senior commander in Afghanistan.
One administration official said that the White House believed that top Pentagon and military officials misled them by promising to deploy the 30,000 additional troops by the summer. General McChrystal and some of his top aides have privately expressed anger at that accusation, saying that they are being held responsible for a pace of deployments they never thought was realistic, the official said.
So there are a ton of things here. First of all tensions have gotten so bad between the military in the White House that now bad sides are freely leaking their dirty laundry to the New York Times. When you have administration officials telling the Times that the brass misled the White House . . . well that's a pretty serious and damning accusation.
