Need More NATO Troops in Afgahnistan

Canada's Defense Minister Peter Mackay has stated...


The U.S., Britain and France are among countries with the "capability" of meeting Canada's demand for a 1,000-soldier allied reinforcement in Afghanistan's Kandahar province, Defence Minister Peter MacKay said here today.

"It's a reasonable ask," Mr. MacKay told reporters at the start of a two-day meeting of defence ministers from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and other NATO allies fighting the Taliban insurgency.

"A thousand troops into Southern Afghanistan is highly doable, given the capabilities that exist for certain countries," he said, identifying the U.S., the United Kingdom and France as potential sources of more soldiers.


First thing first...NATO should demand the abolition of shariah law in Afgahnistan if the government still wants western aid.
Second...we should take out the Taliban in North Wester Pakistan with or without the Pakistani government's permission.

Then and only then will NATO be on the right track to win the forgotten war.
