I have heard many arguments which influenced my opinion, but never one which influenced my vote

We don't have an opinion or more importantly a vote one way or another. We're not thrilled with it ... but it's essentially up to the analysts.

Arguments are extremely vulgar, for everyone in good society holds exactly the same opinion.

I don't want to be influenced by outside opinion.

It's difficult to move in (Afghanistan). We in the west tend to forget geography and climate still dictates a great deal of war in that region.

You're going to start to get more movement (among insurgents). You'll start to get more military engagements.
