The UK announced yesterday that we will be sending in more troops!!! Brace yourself America - the article surmises that the UK never does anything unless the Americans are going to do it too. More of your young will follow us into the death pit that is Afghanistan. Read this article carefully because it will show you that war in the Middle East is not going away. Not until the Middle East is blasted into submission. A couple of quotes from the article: - " In 2001, Tony Blair largely sold the case for war in Afghanistan by insisting the invasion by NATO troops would destroy the country's illicit heroin trade. He emotionally invoked the sad death of a young woman from what was probably an overdose of Afghanistan heroin ".

And......... " It's true that Al Qaeda - responsible for the September 2001 attack on the World Trade Centre - was for a time sheltered by the Taliban in Afghanistan. But now Al Qaeda is regarded by the United States as half an ally in Syria, as it shares a common enemy in President Bashar al-Assad ".

So - we in the West have "half enemies and half allies" in the Middle East. I wonder if Al Qaeda are as confused as we are?
