Sitzkrieg

We want our NATO allies to commit more troops to Afghanistan.

Our allies don't think much of this idea:


France and Germany are questioning the wisdom of sending more soldiers, while Spain, Italy and Turkey have also been wary of providing more troops.


Since these countries don't actually let their troops fight, I can see how they'd be confused about why sending more troops to sit around and watch real soldiers kill the bad guys could possibly be a good idea.
