It is not winable and the number of soldiers killed is reaching a level that the public will not accept.

Totally agree.

Either we should get out or Gordon should go and drive one of his under-armoured tanks.

I once voiced my disgust to an idiot friend of the family, who argued, "well, do you want to be driving in 10 years time?"

"Yes", I said.

"And you need oil for that, don't you?"

"I suppose..."

"Well there we are then. That's what them boys are in there fighting for".

I mean, what is there to say? What DO you say?
Ronnie is victorious, vivacious in victory like a venomous dog. Vile Republicans cease living while the religious retort with rueful rhetoric. These rank thugs resort to violence and swear revenge.

But Ronnie can punch through steel so they lose anyway.

Seeing as the coalition military are pulling out of Iraq, you'd think the U.S would increase their footmen in Afghanistan and send some of our troops home. We do seem to have been covering this front of the war for them.
This war won't be won, it will likely end in some kind of peace truce. As we are fighting an Anarchic state.
