This so-called pipeline is a fantasy generated by conspiracy theorists with no basis in fact.

"Our "democratic" government dismisses the wishes of the majority who want our soldiers returned. Is this the kind of democracy they envision for Afghanistan?"

Your claim is supported by a recent poll. I would say that the three elections that were held across the country, and which elected governments that were in favour of continuing the mission in Afghanistan is a truer representation of the will of the Canadian people.

We're there until 2011, whether 52% of Canadians, at this particular moment in time, like it or not.

Give it a month and another poll will come along agreeing with the mission, the same way it did in Feb 09.
