It’s all about politics

The political views affect tremendously the Canadian involvement in Afghanistan. Some individuals share the same opinion as me like the politicians that are against this project.  The Minister of the Foreign Lawrence Carnon claims that even if the Canadian troops are just training the police and the army in Kabul where the environment is safer than the one of Kandahar they are still in great danger. The Taliban can launch an offensive at anytime on our brave hearted soldiers so even with our ultra modern equipment and technology, they are not invincible. Experts debate about the fact that this mission could cost the Canadian government up to 20 billion dollars and with that money we could save the lives of millions of people in Africa where people are perishing because of diseases by giving them this money they would live to see the future. If we would look at this war from a different point of view, most of the population of the world would be able to see that this battle in the middle-east doesn’t only affect that area but that area but that it also influences the whole wide world. I think that this mission requires the bloodshed of innocent soldiers so next time Canada should take on a mission that they can really accomplish.
