Death in Afghanistan

BBC News: Reports that another British Soldier has been killed in Afghanistan, the death total now stands at 150. Of that total 121 have died in Combat Operations, the other deaths have been due to accidents or illness or other incidents. This will not be the last death in Afghanistan, more will come, as day follows night, Afghanistan at the end of the operation could cost a lot more than Iraq. After all these deaths, one has to ask why our soldiers are not being payed more, why they don't have up to date equipment, why we don't have more troops in country to keep ground we have won. Also what is the EXIT route out of Afghanistan, what is the end game, how in the hell do we get out. The Obama Plan for Pakistan to get tough with the badlands between Afghanistan and Pakistan is not starter, no Foreign Power has ever been able to control this area, and the USSR did not play by our rules. Thus the operation is Afghanistan need new ideas, so far none are that great, just a different level of bad options. One hell of a war to get caught in, does recall World War One in some respects, in needed the USA to come to finish the job.
