[QUOTE="Ticklishchap, post: 1053669, member: 84583"] The scenes at the airport are a strange echo of Saigon (or worse still Phnom Penh), as if nothing has been learned after all these decades by the US. On the British side, the betrayal of Afghan students offered scholarships is shameful, especially as the excuse that has been given is bureaucratic and process-driven. I read an interview in the Independent (online) yesterday with the mother of a Blackwatch soldier killed in the early stages of the war. She now believes that the sacrifice of her son was pointless and it is hard not to agree with her. [/QUOTE]
