Retreat From Helmand

This is what an abject defeat and a consequent retreat look like.

Oh, well, at least we are going to ban the Muslim Brotherhood.

You know, the one that, if they don't give it to "al-Qaeda", our masters want to give an Emirate in Syria.

The putative Emirate for which they want to prosecute our citizens for going to fight. Even though they themselves want to send our troops to fight for it.

Especially, I suppose, now that those troops have time on their hands due to having been kicked out of Helmand. By "al-Qaeda".

Nigel Farage is right to give Vladimir Putin considerable credit for his role in preventing a military intervention in support of the Islamist insurgency in, and invasion of, Syria.

But what really made the Americans stop and think was David Cameron's defeat on the floor of the House of Commons.

For that, the credit belongs to Ed Miliband.
