Why Are They Still There

Just some of the brave soldiers who have died in Afghanistan
Since the start of the war in 2002 there have been 3188 soldiers killed. Of those 38 were Australians. Australian citizens were surveyed on whether the Australian soldiers should still be in Afghanistan and the results which were posted on the ABC news website. It says “Support for the war in Afghanistan has dropped in the last few years. Depending which poll you believe, between 54 and 61 per cent of Australian's surveyed want the troops brought home straight away.” There are many arguments in parliament that having the troops in Afghanistan is making a difference but in what way. They are trying to get the Afghan people more freedom but it is having a huge effect on the people. If you go to the sit below there is a lost of the casualties from each country.
