Rejected petition Declare victory and get our people out of Afghanistan

More details

379 British service people have died to date (14th August, 2011) in or as a result of the near-ten-year involvement in Afghanistan. Osama bin Laden has been killed by the Americans. We are neither defending British people nor British interests by staying in Afghanistan, nor are we making our streets safer at home. We should declare victory and get out now before even more of our people are killed or maimed on this now-pointless and seemingly endless mission.
