That's why I was saying there are a couple of considerations. One is that I think, as a responsible member of the international community, we have to be conscious of the fact that we could be decisive to failure. As I said, I don't think we can do enough to win, but I think we could actually be decisive to failure. We could make that mission unravel if we were to just up and leave.
At the same time, I think we have every interest in pushing our allies to do more. I think the government has begun to do that. That's what I think is going to be happening at Bucharest, where there is a lot of effort going on behind the scenes, evidently, to try to find an extra battalion.
I don't think a battalion is enough. If you look at the number of forces we put into Kosovo--at the end of the Kosovo conflict--proportionately, the number was vastly higher than what we've put into Afghanistan. As Mr. Jackson said, the consequence is that you get a lot higher rate of civilian casualties, because you get the military relying on air power and on other kinds of activity.
So we're in a position where we need a lot more troops on the ground. I guess 1,000 is a number to start with. I don't think it should be the end.
