I'm not a soldier and to be quite honest dont agree with the war but if i was a brit and seen the afghani a sleep when he should of been on watch at night i would of lost it and then he smiled,as far as i know faling a sleep on watch is a very serious thing and in war couldbe shot, no wonder the brits are loosing faith

@bannanahomie

Regardless of what troops feel about the war, the right decision has to be made and not the popular one. What matters is what's the right thing to do.

The right thing to do is leave. I don't want to see another NATO soldier die defending a corrupt puppet regime from an enemy that seems unbeatable.

We can either leave now and accomplish hardly anything or spend millions more dollars and hundreds more lives in the future and still achieve hardly anything

i understand wheree ur coming from but in my opinion theres a couple of things wrong with that comment
if the taliban was in ur country doing the exact same things as they do to the afghani women and children, wouldnt u want other countries to help? also how can u be so sure whats gonna happen in the future?
lastly all successful events and humans achieved by believing, sadly negativity is stronger than positivity

@bannanahomie, of course I'd want other countries to help but all over the world there are civil unrest and wars. If that's the reason we stay in Affghanistan then, by that logic, we should be helping all other countries too!

Just because some think NATO win, it doesn't mean NATO.

The Taliban simply want Afghanistan back to the Afghans and not to foreign invaders. it can be solved with a diplomatic settlement with moderate elements of the Taliban.

the ANA and ANP are vital to operations in afghanistan without them it would be a war against a country not just a militant faction(terrorist)

i can see ur not the sharpest tool in the shed so ill explain
not all afghanis in the ANA and ANP would flip to the taliban in an instant like you said, after all they could be looking to exact revenge or rescuing their country from terrorists... plus how can u be so sure that all afghani soldiers are hopeless? unless you've seen everyone of them in action
another helpless victim fallen prey to the media
