Am reading a book on Great Britain’s Imperial role in Afghanistan in the 19th Century, the book by Peter Hopkirk; The Great Game, On Secret Service in High Asia; looks at the Afghan Wars that drew Britain in to Afghanistan. In looking at the present War in Afghanistan am looking to see if we in the UK have learned any lessons from our Imperial Campaigns. Will report back to see if we have made any of the same mistakes!
A look at the Politics of the United States and the UK. The Foreign Policies of both countries and how they behave in the International Community.
