THREE cheers for the internet leak over the consistent failure of the US-UK military campaign in Afghanistan.
The only threat to the lives of our troops is our government putting them into a war that no occupier has ever won.
Every lesson of history has shown that any outside power propping up a government in Afghanistan only undermines the credibility of that very government in the eyes of the Afghan people.
We cannot and should not try to impose our culture and politics on an alien culture.
We should never have gone in and the sooner we grasp the reality and pull out the better.
Councillor Steve Radford, Liberal Party NEC, Liverpool.
