Deaths in Afghanistan

MOD: Reports that two UK soldiers have died in Afghanistan, the soldiers were from " The Black Watch, 3rd Battalion The Royal Regiment of Scotland " Thus since 2001 the UK has lost 210 of its Armed Forces Personnel in Afghanistan, of that number it has lost 179 in combat operations and 31 due to illness, accidents or other incidents. Its end of August, how many more soldiers will the UK lose in Afghanistan, why do I have this worry that Afghanistan has become a political football for politicians in the USA and UK. I know understand the mindset of LBJ in the Vietnam War, lets hope its not the same result, the UK's track record in Afghanistan has not been great, lets not add another negative chapter.
