Paddy Ashdown on Afghanisthan
Paddy Ashdown talked a lot of sense about Afghanisthan on Kate Silverton’s program this morning on Radio 5. After all he’s been a soldier, a spy, a successful politician and the High Representative in Bosnia.
For the next few days, you can listen to it on the BBC’s web site.
All politicians should be made to listen to it again and again.
I think that the most important point he made was that there is no real overall plan in Afghanisthan. In fact, he said that fifteen different countries had fifteen different plans.
Obama should knock a few heads together and get that plan.

About This Blog
What this blog will eventually be about I do not know.
But it will be about how I’m coping with the loss of my wife and son to cancer in recent years and how I manage with being a coeliac and recovering from a stroke. It will be about travel, sport, engineering, food, art, computers, large projects and London, that are some of the passions that fill my life.
And hopefully, it will get rid of the lonely times, from which I still suffer.
