The first rule of the Afghan "war"

is you do not talk about the Afghan "war".
The second rule is : You DO NOT talk about the Afghan "war".
#3) You do not show up for the debate in Parliament if you are the Prime Minister.
#4) You do not meet the returning coffins.
#5) You do not fly the flag at half-mast on the Peace Tower to honour the dead.
#6) You do not allow images of flag-draped coffins of the dead.
#7) Fights will go on as long as they have to.

I am Jack's complete lack of surprise.
