IMO it was right that he was there leading his men and serving his country however at the same time it is the right to bring him home now that it has been leaked about him serving in the country.


Looking forward to the day that Tony Blairs son goes to fight in the war zones of his fathers and his friend Bush creation. You never know maybe Bush will send his daughters to war.
Oh yeah, I forgot that stupid Bush guy invaded Afghanistan for no reason. Any real leader would have invited the Taliban over for some tea.

It was the other country that Bush invaded for little or no reason.

If we had stuck with Afghanistan we would of had the resources to kick butt and win!

How naive does one have to be to still believe that a war can be won in Afganistan??? Iraq??? Grow up and try to learn from the past invasions and their results. Does not matter how many troops, guns, bombs you have. Any attempt to invade a country that falls short of wiping out the entire population of thaty country will be futile.

If we had stuck to Afghanistan we would of had a better chance of controlling the border. It was a safe haven for terrorist and we did have an impact for a short period.

I do agree that the idea of winning is hard to define. Not sure that you can really stop terrorist in a free and open world.
