Afghanistan War - "A Waste of Blood and Treasure" http://usa.mediamonitors.net/content/view/full/73509

Viewed from any angle, the U.S. war in Afghanistan could only be seen as a tragic exercise in futile destruction and display of naked arrogance. The eight year of bloodshed has not produced any desirable result either for the U.S. or for Afghanistan, and further continuation and intensification of the war would only bring further death and destruction....Sir Christopher Meyer, former British envoy to Washington says, "After nearly eight years in Afghanistan there is still no clarity about why we are there.” He properly describes war in Afghanistan as “a waste of blood and treasure.”
