While Cameron makes British troops redundant as they return from Afghanistan he proposes to use our mere resources to set up a Sandhurst in the Sand.

/// Mr Cameron stressed that even after Britain's 9,500 troops are pulled out of Afghanistan, they would continue to train, fund and equip the Afghan National Army. ///

I wonder how long he proposes to fund the Afghan National Army, and will he use other's overseas aid money?

Just spotted this in the report

/// President Karzai also revealed he was likely to accept an invitation from the Prime Minister to come to London for the Olympics 'if there is room'. ///

Now that is just attracting terrorism at the Olympics surely?
Not really, David Cameron is here all the time, not just for the Olympics.
LOL @ Andy.

As Ramadan is likely to begin on Friday and continue through the duration of the Olympics I think it is unlikely that Karzai will attend. The Afghan Ambassador will almost certainly attend the events that Afghans are competing in.
Karzai will probably come after Ramadan when he can enjoy an banquet or two.

If terrorists do get into the Olympic stadium, they will probably have better targets than the President of a barren shitheap.
Gromit - nothing to stop him enjoying a banquet during Ramadan, which may be the best time.

Traditionaly, those who are fasting get up early and have a big breakfast, fast during the day, and then have a big dinner at night, so as along as the sun has gone down, he is free and clear to trough in.
Gromit, your last two words are very misinformed. Afghanistan is far from barren, it is in fact very rich agriculturally and also extremely rich with minerals. Sadly the infrastructure isn't there to exploit either.
