Let’s not gnash and groan, let’s focus on something.

Here’s a subject right in Belmont Club’s wheelhouse – meta-understanding and the problems thereof. Not only is our President, Commander-in-Chief overwhelmed with data, so are our war-fighters according to Aviation Leak…

… Afghanistan is being hit with a “bow wave” of technology involving advanced weapons, communications, sensors, and both manned and unmanned intelligence-gathering aircraft that must be integrated.

What if we were to remove unintended complications ( “bow wave” of technology ) and go back to the A-teams of November and December 2001 in Afghanistan, each with their own B-1′s and B-52′s drawing lazy smoke rings in the sky?

That would be re-writing another President’s bold history…

The towers fell in New York on 9/11/01, Kabul fell to American-led forces on 11/14/01. That’s 65 days.

President Obama’s hand-picked replacement commander in Afghanistan, GEN McChrystal, delivered his Afghanistan war plans to President Obama on 8/30/01, and President Obama hasn’t acted on his General’s recommendations as of today, 11/11/09. That’s 73 days, and waiting.
