Time for Australia to man-up in Afghanistan

Australia as a nation should make the decision to man-up and become a mature and responsible partner in the ISF in Afghanistan. It would help raise up our homeland as a nation in the international community as well as in the hearts and minds of the Australian people. As a good start to this I believe we should apply what Lieutenant-General Barno calls the Five Pillars of the ISF”S Counter-Insurgency plan for Afghanistan.

These principles being,
 Defeat terrorism and deny sanctuary.
 Enable the Afghan security structure.
 Sustain area ownership.
