    Sid - it is Iraq we were lied to about and was based on a questionable premise. The Afghan mission is different and has a full UN mandate though some of the expectations originally voiced publicly are shown to be over optimistic.

    The troops I know are proud, rightly, of the job they do and of their service in Afghanistan (and Iraq come to that). They are highly professional and consider it and the risks associated with it as part of doing the job they are so good at. That does not mean that we should take their bravery and sacrifice lightly.
