BBC News: Reports that NATO will send another five thousand soldiers and trainers to Afghanistan. The BBC reports that the UK will send nine hundred of that surge. My question is how many of these soldiers from other NATO countries will be combat troops, not troops that cant fight, cant go out after dark, have to act like policemen not soldiers. Lets see the details, one can postulate that UK forces will be sent to the South to fight. Lets see if Germany and Spain allow their forces to fight, or is all this just spin. Its great to have trainers but if the West was to lose the country to the Taliban/Terrorists its not much use.
