Please come home safely now Lyse.
You've more than done your bit.

I was wondering how she’ll get out too. I suspect she’ll take an overland route - perhaps to Pakistan- with heavily armed security.

I am not sure it is worth her taking this risk now - I think we have all got the picture as far as Afghanistan is concerned; and a pitiful picture it is.

It would make sense for her to come back now - surely she has an exit strategy?

I can't see that she is staying on just to make a name for herself. She is very experienced, so she must know the risks.

She has done a brilliant job reporting life in Afghanistan, but as a prominent female reporter the Taliban will be a real threat to her.

I was saying that tonight.She must have a plan!

Has donned a helmet for her latest report (BBC News 22.00).

Please, can't she leave now? How will she get 'home''?
