British general — can’t win Afghanistan

That’s the take on the situation there by Brigadier Mark Carlton-Smith. He says:
We're not going to win this war. It's about reducing it to a manageable level of insurgency that's not a strategic threat and can be managed by the Afghan army," he said.

Needless to say, the Afghan government is not pleased.
