Afghan war 'controls immigration'

From the BBC:

Afghan war 'controls immigration': "Removing troops from Afghanistan would 'significantly increase' the number of asylum seekers in the UK, a minister says."

So now we finally have it.  The policy objective of our war in Afghanistan is not to prevent terrorism, not to tackle opium production, not even to support our allies but to control immigration thus reducing the pressure on Macavity in the run-up to the next election.

And to say this on the day five of our soldiers are murdered is extremely off.  Shame, shame, shame.
