Afghan war gets tanks as NATO struggles
The US lead NATO mission in Afghanistan is heating up while NATO itself struggles with the costs and its own existence. NATO, first conceived as a balance to the Soviet Union during the Cold War is looking for relevance in the 21st century. Brian Becker, the national director for the A.N.S.W.E.R. Coalition said, there is no relevance and NATO is merely an arm of US military strategy. He explained the Obama administration now has to twist the arms of European governments to keep them involved in the Afghan war as the political and economic costs increase. Meanwhile, the US has now decided after 10 years to deploy M1 Abrams tanks to combat zones in Afghanistan; a "shock and awe" tactic explained Becker
