    For an insurgency to sustain itself, there has to be mass support, adequate finances, free supply of arms and ammunition, safe havens to recruit, train, refit and reorg and external support.

    Have these been addressed in Afghanistan?

    First and foremost, one has to eliminate the safe havens where recruiting, refitting, reorganising can is being done.

    Currently, all insurgents/ terrorists etc are with impunity recruit, refit, train, reorg and then launch forays against the ISAF.

    Drone attacks cannot address the issue in it totality, more so since the CIA and others have been given the marching orders.
