    This war isn't just about Taliban and Al Quaeda anyway. It is about regime change designed to liberate the long suffering Afghans from an oppresive organisation.

    The list of wrongs the allies are trying to right includes things most of the civilised world take for granted:

    1. Female education
    2. Female working rights
    3. Right to play music
    4. Right to vote for government (whatever form)
    5. Right to choose religion

    I am sure there are others, but as BarryW rightly says, the Taliban overtly support and give succour to Al Quaeda so that is a main reason too.

    Wherever that organisation touches (like the old PLO under Yasser Arrowroot (who took the biscuit in my view)) turns to violence and death. ANYTHING our troops can do to bring an end to scoundrels and monsters is worthy IMHO.
