The problem is, well, in my limited eyes anyway, there is no clear set goal in Afghanistan.

A set of goals or not, the coalition is fighting on the enemies playground. They know the terrain, the climate and layout. Remember the American history of the Red Coats fighting the Colonists? Here we have fresh guys off the boat from England. They are not familiar with the terrain and layout. Furthermore, they are walking in the woods with RED COATS! The Colonists are in their work clothing. Normally brown. They know the terrain and layout. Also, they had a lot to fight and protect. That in itself create enough drive to win a war. Not a wonder those soldiers in bright red coats lost. So really, what is our desire to fight for the folks over there? Granted, I would go if asked but would my heart be in it? Not by a long shot.
