Full story: National Post

British Prime Minister Gordon Brown announced Wednesday an extra 500 troops for Afghanistan, but pressed NATO allies to do their "fair share" in the increasingly deadly and unpopular mission.

Other countries need to help. NATO needs to help. Hey, just remember, all previous invaders went in alone. They had no help. We need a large group of help! Eventually the country will have to embrace some form of Democracy or Gov't, why not now?

More proof that President Obama has the correct approach on the international front. Our allies are now volunteering to help the United States under the strong leadership of President Obama. What a far cry from being hated like the way we were when Bush pushed republican policies that destroyed our stature and standing the world. This is real leadership; God bless America.

You are a complete moron. Obama is a puppet of the privately held central banks. The UN aka World Government uses the US and Britan as their military arm. The UN takes direction from the world central bank. This war is a complete lie to control the opium trade in Afghanistan. Obama is not calling the shots. The bankers are. What an blind idiot you are. WAKE UP! Stop praising a love for a man that is a puppet. You can see the strings of his masters. You ar elike the little kid and the puppet sitting in the front with a big smile. You should be the kid that gets up and walks around the stage to see how it all works.

Hey dummy,
Britain has always been by our side in the fight. It's the rest of the world that isn't... And why would they now when there's only 100 Al-Qaida left in Afghanistan?

ROFL! Talk about Naive & Stupid all in one!

Your premise is that we can beat democracy into their thick skulls, eh? Shadows of Vietnam!

BTW - Did it occur to you that we are basically losing the war against indigenous fighters?

Since England is inundated with muslim terrorists, a good percentage of the 500 soldiers being sent to Afgahnistan are islamic terrorists themselves.

The English government probably did this deliberately in order to sabotage allied troops.

Supposedly Obama is mulling information that the majority of "fighters" in Afghanistan are not taliban or al qaeda, but tribal members who do not want to give up land, smuggling routes and money.

Oh, 500 more should do the trick!

Whatever you think about foreign policy, this is a joke.

Only 500, Bush would have gotten 5,000!
This complete buffoon of a president has taken how long to make this decision to send more troops?

Wait, he still hasn't!

Obama is killing us on the foreign relations, international citizens may like the US more, but the governments laugh louder now that we have a wuss for a TOTUS (intentional use of teleprompter).
