		<description>MILESTONES OR MORE GRAVESTONES?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;(LIAM HANLEY)  Setting off from Brize Norton earlier that day, news had come through of a grim milestone - the number of British deaths in Afghanistan since the war began in (2001) had now passed the 200 mark. (Liam Hanley is assistant editor on (BBC) British Broadcasting Company Program (5 live Drive) (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.BBC.Co.UK&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;www.BBC.Co.UK&lt;/a&gt;.)) &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;(RETIRED NATO COMMANDER) After retiring as (NATO) The North Atlantic Treaty Organization, commander in (2007), Jones became co-chairman of the Atlantic Council, a Washington think tank. In (2008), the council issued a report that began, &quot;Make no mistake, the international community is not winning in Afghanistan.&quot; &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;(TRIATHLON) We can not gage the milestones being passed as they are not being place for viewing we only know what has been reported and that has been little to nothing we know that (2) two nations of the British Common Wealth of Nations, England and Canada have lost over (500+) Five-Hundred Plus troops and the (U.S. Empire) no longer reports the number of its troops lost. The (KIA) Killed in Action numbers are not known, and the political will to continue seems to be weakening with the majority of involved States, and meanwhile the reluctant (NATO) North Atlantic Treaty Organization, coalition is losing interest with participating nations declaring dates on which they intend to leave. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;AUSTRALIA: (1,070) (KIA/UNK) (Southern Afghanistan) are fighting along side of Denmark/Netherlands troops on their own in an increasingly violent battle.&quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;BELGIUM: (535-565) (KIA/UNK) said it will add between (35 -65) Thirty-five to Sixth-five military trainers to a force of (500) Five-Hundred, and send (2) two more (F-16) jet fighters, bringing the total number it has sent to (6) six.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;CANADA: (KIA. 300+) With the support in Canada of the (Af-Pak) Blood for Oil War, at about (35%) Thirty-Five Percent, with support decreasing monthly,Canada is considering withdrawal&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;DENMARK/NETHERLANDS: (1,650) (KIA/UNK) (Southern Afghanistan) are fighting along side of Australian troops on their own in an increasingly violent battle, Denmark Considering Withdrawal.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;FRANCE: (1,515) (KIA/UNK) (Kabul) Declined the request for additional troops, President Sarkozy France would not be sending reinforcements to bolster its existing force northeast of Kabul, but was &quot;ready to do more&quot; in the field of police training and economic aid.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;GERMANY: (3,500) (KIA 12+) (Northern Afghanistan) Angela Merkel, the German chancellor, “We have a great responsibility here.

Now, as American commanders are asking for more troops, with the last American deployment, the number of Western troops there is already about the same as the Soviets had there in (1987). In (1988), the Soviets finally woke up, cut their losses and quickly “retreated” leaving billions worth of armaments to rust along with, (14K) Fourteen-Thousand, Russian graves.

<p>(LIAM HANLEY)  Setting off from Brize Norton earlier that day, news had come through of a grim milestone &#8211; the number of British deaths in Afghanistan since the war began in (2001) had now passed the 200 mark. (Liam Hanley is assistant editor on (BBC) British Broadcasting Company Program (5 live Drive) (<a href="http://www.BBC.Co.UK" rel="nofollow">http://www.BBC.Co.UK</a>.)) </p>
<p>(RETIRED NATO COMMANDER) After retiring as (NATO) The North Atlantic Treaty Organization, commander in (2007), Jones became co-chairman of the Atlantic Council, a Washington think tank. In (2008), the council issued a report that began, &#8220;Make no mistake, the international community is not winning in Afghanistan.&#8221; </p>
<p>(TRIATHLON) We can not gage the milestones being passed as they are not being place for viewing we only know what has been reported and that has been little to nothing we know that (2) two nations of the British Common Wealth of Nations, England and Canada have lost over (500+) Five-Hundred Plus troops and the (U.S. Empire) no longer reports the number of its troops lost. The (KIA) Killed in Action numbers are not known, and the political will to continue seems to be weakening with the majority of involved States, and meanwhile the reluctant (NATO) North Atlantic Treaty Organization, coalition is losing interest with participating nations declaring dates on which they intend to leave. </p>
<p>AUSTRALIA: (1,070) (KIA/UNK) (Southern Afghanistan) are fighting along side of Denmark/Netherlands troops on their own in an increasingly violent battle.&#8221;</p>
<p>BELGIUM: (535-565) (KIA/UNK) said it will add between (35 -65) Thirty-five to Sixth-five military trainers to a force of (500) Five-Hundred, and send (2) two more (F-16) jet fighters, bringing the total number it has sent to (6) six.</p>
<p>CANADA: (KIA. 300+) With the support in Canada of the (Af-Pak) Blood for Oil War, at about (35%) Thirty-Five Percent, with support decreasing monthly,Canada is considering withdrawal</p>
<p>DENMARK/NETHERLANDS: (1,650) (KIA/UNK) (Southern Afghanistan) are fighting along side of Australian troops on their own in an increasingly violent battle, Denmark Considering Withdrawal.</p>
<p>FRANCE: (1,515) (KIA/UNK) (Kabul) Declined the request for additional troops, President Sarkozy France would not be sending reinforcements to bolster its existing force northeast of Kabul, but was &#8220;ready to do more&#8221; in the field of police training and economic aid.</p>

<p>ITALY: (2,880) (KIA/UNK) (Western Afghanistan &#038; Kabul) Italy Considering Withdrawal.</p>
<p>POLAND: (1,100) (KIA/UNK) (Mobile) Poland Considering Withdrawal.</p>
<p>SPAIN: (12-600) (KIA/UNK) said ahead of the summit that it would add a small contingent of (12-600) twelve to six-hundred to help train Afghan army officers? </p>
<p>UNITED KINGDOM: (8,600) (KIA 200)(Kabul, Kandahar, Helmand) The (“TEMPORARY  UPLIFT”) of between (500-700) five to seven hundred increasing Britain’s military strength there to about (9K)  Nine-Thousand, for a four month period until  British elections to be held on August 20 , with a  planned  withdrawal of all British Forces upon completion of the elections.</p>
<p>(U.S. EMPIRE): The Empire counts it (KIA) in Tens of Thousands and doesn’t blink an eye, and will commit whatever amount of troops for as long as it sees’s fit.

<p>(Disclaimer: These numbers are catch as catch can numbers) It should also be understood that for each (KIA), (10) ten others are wounded with (40%) of that number having life altering injuries.</p>
<p>(MIGHT MAKES RIGHT)</p>
<p>The application of the ‘might is right’ principle, and the continued unveiling of repeated new strategies,  has reached a deadlock in the Islamic Crescent War of Blood for Oil, Resources and Markets, and many are now asking the question, Does the Community of Nations, and the intervening powers have any perception of how to handle this hopeless situations.
