So your outlook is optimistic.
Are you saying that we should not conflate the ISAF's inability to route the taliban with any failure on the Afghan government's part? Reasonable to a certain extent actually.
AND how do you think the ANSF will operate along with the ANA? What's the strategy to prevent the taliban from spreading terror through repeated attacks in an attempt to erode the writ of the state?
ISAF did their part but as a foreign entity they could never bring peace or succeed in Afghanistan! that's the nature here...
ANA includes ANSF - ANA (Afghan National Army)
and ANSF (Afghanistan National Security Forces) includes:
ANA + other special and elite units
ANP (Afghan National Police) + other special and elite units
ABP (Afghan Border Police)
NDS (National Directorate of Security)
AAF (Afghan Air Force)
The strategy should be not only militarily but political as well because the nature of war in Afghanistan doesn't look it will end in any military victory the war will prolong as long as foreigners stay in Afghanistan having a complete rejection of their stay by any group within or outside Afghanistan - so that's why US is trying it's best to bring Taliban into negotiation table not only for peace in Afghanistan but also to reach a reliable agreement with all groups in Afghanistan for it's stay beyond 2014!
