>>I point you towards Afghanistan in which NATO countries are still battling away against the Taliban.
You Brits don't count. You always were your own people, even asyou consider Blair to be Bush's lapdog. One of the Brit commanders in southern Iraq blew the whistle on Iranian complicity in the attacks years ago.
However, look at the way the rest of NATO is behaving in Afghanistan. FACTBOX-Restrictions on NATO troops in Afghanistan http://www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/L26451165.htm and how little cooperation there really is NATO rebuffs Bush on troop restrictions in Afghanistan http://www.iht.com/articles/2006/11/29/news/web.1129NATO.phpAs I wrote earlier, if we weren't a franchise of Scruples-R-Us, we could position AC130s over the mountain passes and kill everybody who tries to enter Afghanistan. That would solve the problem of a "spring offensive."
