The UK in Afghanistan - Afghanistan War

BBC News: Reports " The UK is to extend the stay of its troops in Afghanistan, Defence Secretary Michael Fallon has told MPs.

Lets Get Real:

This move by the UK follows the US policy for keeping troops in Afghanistan as to build local forces, also to deal with the growth of Daesh, the growing threat from the Taliban with support from Al Qaeda.   The UK left Iraq in 2009, and we are now back fighting from the air.   The Daesh threat to the Middle East has shown what happens when you leave problem not solved.  It would not come as a great shock if the UK has to place new troops in Iraq, these conflicts never end, just half time break before the War goes on.   The threats from Daesh, Al Qaeda and the Taliban will take years to fight, it will be a long and dirty War.
