Telegraph: Reports that the UK and German Embassies and NATO headquarters in Kabul have come under attack. Thus folks this shows how the supposed security that NATO brings is hollow and can be thwarted in the fighting Summer months. If the NATO Allies want out of Afghanistan by 2015 they will have to up their game, they can not afford from the PR point of view to have the Taliban take over once the last truck or helicopter leaves Afghanistan, that would be to much like Saigon in South Vietnam in 1975. That would be a disaster for any US President or UK PM. Thus, there is a need to revise the military plans for Afghanistan, at least to give the appearance that when NATO leaves that the Afghan Government can fight off the Taliban, at least long enough for the 24/7 news channels to get bored with the post NATO Afghanistan.
