British soldier shot dead in Afghanistan

Since the invasion in 2001, 160 British soldiers died in Afghanistan. The last victim was a British soldier that died after being shot near Sangin in the southern of Afghanistan. The ministry of Defence confirmed this today. The soldier was a part of the 2nd Battalion the Roayl Regiment of Fusilier. No one else was injured that day. The MOD said that the identity of the soldier will be released tomorrow. A spokesman of the Task Force Helmand said that the soldier in case was here for one cause and that was to help the Afghan people. He quotes: This true hero paid the ultimate sacrifice and his memory will live with us forever. He also said that they all mourn his loss and that their thought and prayers are with the family and friends.

The number is so high I couldn't believe my eyes. 160 people that lost their live and 160 family that lost their relatives. How longer is this going to continue ? I think it is enough and Afghanistan should take its own control in hands and sort everything out. I have great respect for these men that only want to help other people.
