It's more than seven years since US and allied forces overthrew the Taliban in Afghanistan, following the Al-Qaeda attacks on 9/11 and many now believe we're stuck in a conflict that's unwinnable. But President-elect Obama, though keen to pull out of Iraq, wants to make Afghanistan the new focus of the "war on terror"; he has pledged three new battalions to that conflict and is expected to ask for additional help from NATO'S European allies. Is he making a grave mistake? Is the very notion of military victory an illusion? Have we left it too late to win over Afghan hearts and minds? Shouldn't we now be talking to the Taliban? And in any case, isn't it Pakistan that's the real problem? These are just some of the vital questions that our panellists in this important symposium will be addressing.
