Plews, DerekSHAMROCKS AMONG THE POPPIES: Musa Qal'eh 2006 -- A Bloody Siege And The Failures Behind It An account of the Siege of Musa Qal'eh, Afghanistan, in 2006, told in the words of the men who fought there. Recounts how a small band of Royal Irish Regiment and other soldiers fought to hold a run-down, mud-brick compound against determined and well-armed Taliban insurgents who were intent on their destruction. Sets out the controversial background and the consequences of the UK's decision to shift its focus to Afghanistan while still heavily engaged in the US-led invasion of Iraq. Highlights the failures of intelligence and high-level political and military decision-making that resulted in the dispatch of a force that was too small and under-resourced for the tasks it faced.
