UK report warns of Iraq, Afghanistan deterioration

"The House of Commons Foreign Affairs Committee says Afghanistan is 'in danger of implosion' and Iraq is 'a battleground for Al Qaeda'.

The highly critical report outlines a series of failures that have cost coalition opportunities in Iraq. It says the United Kingdom's credibility has been damaged by the inability to provide basic services, such as electricity and water. The British MPs also say they are concerned there is a cover up of key intelligence and prisoner abuse."

Story from ABC News Online. The report seems to conclude that sending more troops is the best solution to all these problems.
