Afghanistan

Asked if there was anything more on troops, the PMOS said that even though it was old fashioned we needed to make the decision before announcing it. Asked what was different in this request from the Ed Butler one, the PMOS said that was misunderstanding the process. The operational commanders on the ground in Afghanistan assessed their needs; those needs were then passed back to their military superiors in London who in turn passed it up the political chain. What people had seen was each step along that route.
