Two Years Under Obama: Some Measurable Criteria in Afghanistan

The Huffington Post has provided online a simple table that shows how some of the dynamics of the war in Afghanistan has changed in the past two years under President Obama.  Some of the criteria include troop deaths, number of IED attacks, drone strikes in Pakistan, mobile phone use, and more.

"The Huffington Post completed a status update of the war in Afghanistan, including conditions in the impoverished country, comparing January 2009 to January 2011. As indicated, some of the statistics reflect available data from the previous year."
