Why did the UK join the afghan war?
Afghanistan War is a direct result of the September 11, 2001 attacks. The attacks were caused by Al Qaeda terrorists, who were based in Afghanistan. The Taliban is a radical Islamic group and was the ruling government of Afghanistan at the time. The Taliban refused to allow the US and our allies into Afghanistan to capture or kill the Al Qaeda terrorists, so we declared war on them. We toppled the Taliban regime and nearly crushed Al Qaeda when the Bush administration pushed for the invasion of Iraq. However, the Taliban and Al Qaeda have recovered over the years while our government has been pre-occupied with Iraq. That pretty much sums up why we are fighting in Afghanistan and why we are still fighting there after 7 years.
