BBC News: NATO plans more Afghan resources

On one side I am really pissed off that NATO has to clean up America’s act in Afghanistan – since most resources have been sent to Iraq. But I think it’s worth the risk to TRY to make Afghanistan a normal country after several decades of war – even by using force to secure the country against the Taliban.

But I have to say that NATO has to try harder – look at some of the troop contributions stated in the BBC article. Austria just three (3!!!) fucking soldiers? Switzerland (not part of NATO) has two – wow! I am sure the Taliban are really scared of your mighty army knifes?

Germany has been unwilling so far to engage in any serious combat – they have focused mostly on rebuilding. The brunt of the fighting has been done by Canadians, Dutch and Americans (click links for some YouTube war porn).
