4 canadian troops killed in Afghanistan
More casualties, and it seems as though some people across the nation want out.
I've always supported the action in Afghanistan (though not Iraq) because that was the source, in the most concrete way, of 9/11 in the backing and shelter provided for Al-Qaeda. The Taliban had to go and once that was done, the coalition had to bring some stability to the country.
I still support the action there, but am concerned that, as with Iraq, there really is no plan to end the fighting and truly take control of the country.
