War in Afghanistan

Has nobody else noticed that there actually never seems to be anybody captured in Afghanistan. It seems to be that there are encounters where oh, let's say 50 Talebhan are killed in an encounter with British soldiers. Nobody seems to be injured, nobody captured for interrogation, just well, they died in battle.

Nothing to do with the fact that these freedom fighters are killed by American airstrikes, or Drones being operated from the safety of the back-office. Not true, I hear the usual culprits, well just look at footage of brave Prince Harry, with his joystick authorising an air strike. How brave is that, 'we do bad things to bad people' was that not on the cap he wore.

The day of retribution is fast approaching where like so many before our occupation we have to retreat, just like every instance in the past. it will be left to special forces and the Drones to fight the war.

It will be just like the war against Japan after the victory in Eirope, the forgotten war, with forgotten soldiers fighting because that's what they do.
