US choice hardly McChrystal clear
The selection of Lieutenant General Stanley McChrystal as the new top United States commander in Afghanistan has been hailed by the Pentagon and the press. A closer look at his career, which includes five years as a commander of counter-terrorism operations, not counter-insurgency, indicates he will continue with the special operations and airstrikes that have proved so counter-productive in Afghanistan. - Gareth Porter (May 13,'09)
