No WIN in Afghanistan !

BBC News: Reports on the comments of the UK's Commander in Helmand Province, Brigadier Mark Carleton-Smith, the Brigadier has the view that the West cant win in Afghanistan and we should talk to the Taliban. I think the Brigadier Carleton - Smith should keep his views to himself, this is in the same vain as the views as reported in the French Press of the British Ambassador in Kabul. The British Army and Foreign Office have to learn that sometimes you have to fight to win, these comments don't help the West and give good material to the terrorists to work their propaganda on the border between Pakistan and Afghanistan. The head of the Army and the Foreign Secretary need to have a strong but quite word, the message has to be sent out, SHUT UP. There is an old WW2 line, lose talks sinks ships, well this helps the terrorists and the Taliban. The Elite of both the Army and Foreign Office need to learn one lesson, if you disagree with policy resign, if you don't want to resign SHUT UP.
