More troops = easier for OBL to escape? This is just rationalization. With more troops, we could've surrounded the mountain range. A lot more troop would have taken a lot more time to deploy and would have been more difficult to supply. If we attacked before having the new troops deployed and ready we would have had a very similar situation to what actually happened. If we waited for a huge invasion to be ready it would have given bin Laden a lot more time to hide or escape. Surrounding an entire mountain range requires a lot of soldiers and can cause difficult supply situations in a place like Afghanistan even for a country like the US. We could have had a few more soldiers without much delay but they probably wouldn't have made much difference. Tim
