WASHINGTON (AP) - The White House
said President Barack Obama could use an unusual evening war council
session Monday to lock in his long-awaited decision on whether to
commit tens of thousands of new U.S. forces to the stalemated war in Afghanistan.
Military officials and others said they expect Obama to settle on a
middle-ground option that would deploy an eventual 32,000 to 35,000
U.S. forces to the 8-year-old conflict.
