Brian Bourke's column entitled "War has become unwinnable" in the May 9, 2007 Waterloo Chronicle is very insightful.

The war in Afghanistan is also unwinnable.

David Orchard's and Michael Mandel's article Afghanistan and Iraq are the Same War, available on-line, state that "Canada must - immediately, and at the minimum- open its doors to Iraqis and Afghanis attempting to flee the horror being inflicted on their homelands."

We must stop pretending that we're not implicated in their suffering under the bombs, death squads and torture.

We should pull out of their though.
