Blair speaks to troops in Afghanistan
Tony Blair tells British troops in Afghanistan they are fighting for the security of the world. 'The world's security is in your hands.' Tony Blair's message for British troops left little ambiguity, as he told them that victory over the Taliban was essential for world peace.
IMO: That seems correct, and poor Bliar seems to be doing his best, for which we must be grateful. But as I pointed out earlier, the other EU nations are truly not pulling their weight - and there are a number of scams, some apparently related to informal road 'tolls' which seem related to US military personnel which certainly does not help. In fact if it does go well it could be termed "Britain's Finest Hour 2.0".
