| Nice one, Mr Gates. That's the way to do it! I have heard it said that Hellman province is the short straw.
Militarily, as I have said before, it is not winnable while the Pakistan border is porous. Afghanistan is a very different ball game altogether as compared with Iraq. I have made this point before, and we are wasting British lives. Sort out the Pakistan border region or spend 100 years taking the same old ground. And 100 years is nothing to the guys we are up against.
