BBC: Doubts set in on Afghan mission

In Afghanistan, BBC correspondent got a revealing look at US
military propaganda, when two soldiers showed him the laminated
cards they had been given with scripted instructions on how to deal
with journalists. The card listed suggested answers to questions
like: "How do you feel about what you're doing in Afghanistan"?
Answer: "We're united in our purpose and committed to achieving our
goals." "How long do you think that will take?" Answer: "We will
stay here as long as it takes to get the job done - sir!"
