Afghanistan is a place which is so dangerous that I think our troops should not be there without the proper support and the correct equipment that they need so desperately. This sorry govermment should be ashamed of sending them there under these conditions. They should be withdrawn until they are properly equipped. They won't even tell us of the enormous number of casualties and hide them in different hospitals so we don't realise the tragic things that are happeninmg there.

I don't see how we can morally leave Iraq since we attacked them in the first place-illegally, and destroyed their country and its infrastructure as well as killing many thousands of civilians. They are now in a bloody civil war without any end in sight. This is the fault of the Billy/American Prat combo who had no idea of what they were starting or how to deal with it.

We are now left with the legacy of having to try to stop this civil war. We cannot in all honesty desert them now.

i do agree that if you join the army and get killed in battle then thats part of army life but to be captured by some sick ***** who give you no trial,no human rights,torture you then cut your head off and then drag your head less body around the streets like its a trophy for the rest of the sick scum to kick and spit at and then they hang you for the highest point that they can find is no way for any one to die soldier or not.

For a Westerner in a Middle Eastern country i'd say that was pretty civilised.

What are you expecting? Fistycuffs and Queensbury Rules??

We need to get the **** out of a part of the world we have nothing to do with, other than trying to ensure their oil doesn't stop flowing.

I'd me more worried about the supply of heroin drying up, it seems to fuel most of our pop industry at the moment and thats worth a lot of dollar

Thats what I believe DCI, but I cannot forecast what will actually happen of course.
