Since the death rat of British soldiers now is proportionally higher than that of US-soldiers, leading politicans and miltitary in the British Department of Defense consider the war in Iraq to be a "lost cost", according to a report in
today's Sunday Telegraph.
Quote:One of the Army's most senior commanders told The Sunday Telegraph that the war in Iraq was now regarded by political and military chiefs within the Ministry of Defence as "a lost cause".
The officer added that Britain and America had to accept they were facing the possibility of "strategic failure" in Iraq.
It is now widely accepted in the higher echelons of the military that the Prime Minister will ask Air Chief Marshal Sir Jock Stirrup, the Chief of the Defence Staff, to start withdrawing British troops by spring 2008.
I think the war will be over soon. The anti war movement is getting ready for some new activities. We know the winds have changed.
