Ask The Times: How Obama Came to Plan for the ‘Surge’

"On Sunday, The New York Times published an account of the three-month review that led to President Obama’s new strategy for the war in Afghanistan. The story of how the president reached his decision for an escalate-then-exit plan was based on dozens of interviews with participants as well as a review of notes some of them took during Mr. Obama’s 10 meetings with his national security team.
This Monday and Tuesday, Peter Baker, Helene Cooper, Mark Landler and David E. Sanger, several of The Times’s correspondents who wrote or contributed to the story, will respond to readers’ questions about the president’s decision-making, the group of civilian and military aides who advised him, and what’s next for the American military in Afghanistan."
