Deaths in Afghanistan

MOD: Reports that the UK has lost 338 of its Armed Forces Personnel in Afghanistan, of that total it has lost 298 in combat operations and 40 due to illness, accidents or other incidents. The next big milestone is when the UK will have lost 300 of its Soldiers in combat operations, how many more before 2015 when the new Coalition Government has promised the UK will have combat troops out of Afghanistan. And then we have the END RESULT, will Afghanistan be any different, will it be more Western, of course not, to many deaths for nothing, lets get out NOW, recall this blog would bomb Tehran tomorrow, so not some extreme left wing blog , just have some basic understating of Afghanistan, the UK has been HERE before, it never ends well, just history repeating itself, at the cost of our brave Armed Forces.
