MOD: Has released the name of the soldier killed on Sunday, the soldier was " Private James Prosser from 2nd Battalion The Royal Welsh " Lets hope there are no more deaths in Afghanistan, if Obama and Brown are not going to surge the troop level and in the UK case increase the kit for our soldiers we should get them out. The War in Afghanistan seems to be following the pattern of Vietnam and Korea.

One chat with US Commander in Afghanistan - General McChrystal
The Washington Times: Reports on the one chat between the US Commander in Afghanistan General McChrystal and President Obama. It seems we now we really see the face of the Obama Administration, President Obama has only spoken once to his Commander in Afghanistan, the same Commander who has just asked for forty thousand more troops. It seems that Obama does not get it, 9/11 seems to have passed him by, also he seems to have missed that the US and its Allies have taken heavy casualties of late in Afghanistan, Obama is another Jimmy Carter but with shades of Neville Chamberlain. At least in the TV series West Wing, that President had Leo as his Chief of Staff, could get his President to see the real world beyond his own press releases. I am sorry to say American voter you were conned in 08, Obama is not a post racial candidate, his comments on a stupid police department shows that, his Just War view of Afghanistan was a election gimmick, another three years and three months of a tax and spend liberal who really hates the USA, then you can vote him out, to be a warm act for another failed President, Jimmy Carter. But on the bright side we might get another Ronald Reagan.
What COST Poland and the Czech Republic ?
The New York Times: Reports that Russia might be playing a double game when it comes to sanctions against Iran, the NYT writes the following, " But the relatively conciliatory statements by Russia’s president, Dmitri A. Medvedev, present an opening to the administration that could turn out to yield little. " As Iran is a close neighbour of Russia, the Russian bear does not want it to cause problems in its Muslim population, thus while it might give the impression that it will do a deal over Iran when it gets down to the details Russia might stay on the fence with China. Thus the selling out of Poland and the Czech Republic by the Obama Administration in the long term might cause problems for the Democrats in 2010 and 2012 if Russia does not agree to harsh sanctions against Iran. One can see the political ads now 2010 in the Mid Term Congressional Elections and in the Presidential Election of 2012, the image of President Obama fades in to the image of Neville Chamberlain. Lets hope Obama has not fallen like Bush 43 for a Russian bluff, the Russian bear does not have a soul when it comes to politics, it has steel claws.
