Why do we allow our self serving political leaders get away with sacrificing the cream of our youth?

The Afghanistan alleged war, the most unnecessary conflict in my life time (73yrs), is murdering the flower of the youth of the UK & USA and for what? Obama, Brown etc., are war criminalsalmost on same scale as Hitler & Tojo. Why waste the future prosperity of our countries on this unwinnable conflict. These soldiers are indeed the potential fathers, mothers, industrialists etc., of the years ahead. If the Afghans, Pakistanis & ociated khaki groups want to blast each other into Hell, so what? Please, everyone, take direct action on the streets or the ballot box to throw this political s, responsible, into the muck heap that they, so richly, deserve! Yes, I served my country in three campaigns & have the medals to prove it. Therefore, it might reasonably be umed I have at least, some idea what I'm on about! Thanks for reading this! Go with your God!
