"Military Leadership - a 19 Act Play"

Thanks to the  tip from Commander Salamander and his fine blog.

"The International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) was a NATO-led military mission in Afghanistan, established by the United Nations Security Council in December 2001 by Resolution 1386, as envisaged by the Bonn Agreement. Its main purpose was to train the Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF) and assist Afghanistan in rebuilding key government institutions, but was also engaged in the War in Afghanistan (2001–present) against the Taliban insurgency."

With hindsight and particularly in the context of the most recent events it does make for difficult viewing. Go see anyhow for better or worse.
