I have to say that I'm a bit uneasy about this relatively sudden change in favor of the US.

How can a surge of about 30,000 extra troops turn what was seemingly a lengthy, drawn out death match with islamist fanatics, into a success for the US?

It seems too good to be true.

I wonder if there is some sort of deal going on.
