For what reason?

I think it's becoming clearer and clearer that the only genuine motivation for the cross-party support - in Britain - for continuing the occupation is as a means of maintaining an undivided and unembarrassed NATO and (attempting to maintain or even enforce) our position within it as the pre-dominant link between the U.S. and Europe.

Nothing else really makes alot of sense.

Apart from the potential oil pipeline through Afghanistan to the Indian Ocean?

If they were desperate to stop terrorist training camps we would be in Sudan, Yemen and Somalia as well of course.
