Should bring troops home from Afganistan?

After British troops being involved in Afganistan for several years, many people were arguing should the government bring troops home or order more troops to Afganistan?

What were people think?

During the debate on Radio 4, one of the Afgan said that at the beginning, when UK troops removing the Taliban goverment.

The locals were very positive, they were even over-expecting that Kabual would change in 24 hours, and Kabual would be quickly become London, Paris, and New York.

However, the west lost their chance during the first two years, and till now many issues were still remain unresolved, such as nation-building, education, heathcare.

A Afgan lady, who were used to be trained as a journalist, told BBC journalist that after the Taiban government were removed, she heard the music on the street, and it was banned for nearly 6 years after Taliban came to power.

More people thought Afganistan definitely need British troops to stablise the country, to assist nation-building, to train the locals fight with the Taliban power.
