There is now more detailed information in the media about battleground action than before. Nevertheless, I find it very difficult to give a yes or no answer to an ongoing war of many complex and intricate variables.
I am not at all sure - looking back over other wars fought recently - that this kind of conflict is winnable strictly on military criteria.
A victory would be achieved if and when the Taliban threat is finally removed by Afghans themselves.
As it stands, however, there appears to be no real option but to take the fight to them.
From a distance it looks like Western troops are bogged down in a scenario that remains mostly unchanged.A stalemate with bloody outbursts that could drag on without an end in sight.
The Afghanistan conflict may begin to get settled should neighbouring Asian countries also pitch in to defeat the Taliban.
Assuming of course the vast majority of the Afghan people of all tribes already rejected the lot.
