Bob Ainsworth: Stating the bleeding Obvious
According to the Telegraph Bob Ainsworth, the Defence Secretary, has admitted the Government has pushed the armed forces “too hard” and that Britain only has scope for a “relatively small” troop increase in Afghanistan.
No shit Bob, You’ve finally managed to work that out.
The only time we should be running with this level of forces is when we have fully committed to the war and are not dithering about waiting for other countries to make up their minds what strategy we are going to take, until then we are just wasting our time and our armed forces lives.
If we fully commit then we can run “hot” for a while as long as we are making our set objectives. If we are expecting any other country to provide extra forces, apart from the US, then we will be waiting along time.
