Death in Afghanistan

MOD: Reports on the death of another British Soldier in Afghanistan. The death total now stands at 142. The MOD reports of those killed in Afghanistan, 113 died in combat, while 29 died due to illness or other incidents. What will be the final figure God only knows, but there will be more deaths, Afghanistan is that kind of place. If the Obama surge next year does not work lets have new ideas about getting our troops out of Afghanistan. Those that read my blog know that VIEWS is a hawk, but a pragmatic hawk, how do we win Afghanistan, can we win, what is the cost of winning and losing, what is the EXIT route out of Afghanistan.
