Summary
According to the article, the NATO will help Afghan to create local forces that are easy to fight with Taliban. This kind of force will release the NATO’s army stress. The U.S. army will train local forces to protect their communities by themselves. These forces must belong to the government. Local forces will be set up in a lot of places, which do not have enough army and police. These local forces focus on defense.

Issues
1. Why the Afghan government worries about the local forces?
2. Doe local forces will help NATO to protect Afghans?
3. How to avoid the local forces helping Taliban?
4. How to lend local people joining to the local forces?

Opinion
This is good for NATO and Afghan government, because NATO will not send a lot of armies to Afghan, and the Afghan government can easy to flight Taliban in some small towns with out NATO’s help. Therefore, many small towns use their power to get the peace by themselves. A lot of NATO’s armies can go back to their counties. On the other hand, the NATO and Afghan government should avoid these local forces help Taliban to fight NATO’s armies, because it is easy to happen some places.
