Karzai seeks info on troops
Afghan President Hamid Karzai is pressing the US top military officer about where 20,000 to 30,000 new US troops will be operating in Afghanistan.
Karzai met with Admiral Mike Mullen in Kabul yesterday. Mullen is the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. He announced over the weekend that Afghanistan could see up to 30,000 new US troops by summer.
