    It is not a war.

    War is a conflict between states.

    War between states is simple. It is not easy,but it is simple.

    In Afghanistan, the States of the West are in [some kind of] alliance, with a [western-bankrolled, deeply corrupt, demonstrably ineffectual] gunmint,

    Against a bunch of low-budget religionists whose only purpose is to eject us from their land,

    The West has no f#ckin' idea:

    - What success look like, or;
    - How to achieve it.

    . . . . but we're still in there, getting our soldiers killed . . .

    Evidence, please?

    You are sufficiently convinced of your argument, that you cannot be bothered to evidence it?

    D'you know what?

    I'm going to behave as if you're talking bollox.

    Would that be OK with you, Honeybunch?

    Because you make assertions on a thread that many of us take very, very seriously, yet you are unable/unwilling to support your assertions with evidence?

    I have found a link with lock solid credentials that proves his assertions are not in any form of doubt, what more evidence could possibly be needed:

    Dry books of tactics are beneath the notice of a man of genius, and it is a known fact that every British officer is inspired with a perfect knowledge of his duty, the moment he gets his commission; and if it were not, it would be sufficiently acquired in conversaziones at the main-guard or the grand sutler's.

    Of course the BBC are always right and known throughout the world for their accuracy. I reckon the old boy who told this tale to some gullible reporter is the German equivalent of Tropper....

    In the career of glory one gains many things; the gout and medals, a pension and rheumatism....all of these fatigues experienced in your youth, you pay for when you grow old. Because one has suffered in years gone by, it is necessary to suffer more, which does not seem exactly fair.
