Afganistan - More Troops?

The administration is considering putting more troops on the ground to fight the guerrillas in Afganistan.

I think we should go back to the international defense system we used to have. Our on the ground role restricted to training the national army of said country and protecting defensible bases. We do all of our fighting from the air, primarily with drones. It's cheaper, safer for our troops and decidedly less satisfying for the guerrillas. I think it is more effective in the long run.
