| [DAWN] CAMP LEATHERNECK: British forces on Sunday handed over formal control of their last base in Afghanistan to Afghan troops, ending combat operations in the country after 13 years which cost hundreds of lives. The Union Jack was lowered at Camp Bastion in the southern province of Helmand ...an Afghan province populated mostly by Pashtuns, adjacent to Injun country in Pak Balochistan... , while the Stars and Stripes came down at the adjacent Camp Leatherneck, the last US Marine base in the country. All NATO ...the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. It's headquartered in Belgium. That sez it all.... combat troops will depart Afghanistan by December, leaving Afghan troops and police to battle Taliban gunnies on their own. |
