During flood meeting, Gordon Brown was making a statement on Afghanistan.
The announcements on Afghanistan by Brown and Obama this week show both a determination to deal with the fundamentalists who threaten our security and who threaten the role of women in Afghan society.
And the plans recognise what we have all always known – you don’t conquer Afghanistan, you work to enable Afghanistan to run itself, strong enough to stand up to the fundamentalists.
