What a great job Obama has done to end wars and spread around Peace in the world since his Nobel Peace prize. He is getting Americans and Afghans both killed, for what purpose?

6 Americans, Afghan doctor killed in attacks in southern, eastern Afghanistan

Updated: Saturday, April 6, 10:51 AM

KANDAHAR, Afghanistan — Six American troops and civilians and an Afghan doctor were killed in attacks on Saturday in southern and eastern Afghanistan as the U.S. military’s top officer began a weekend visit to the country, officials said.

In the south, three U.S. service members, two U.S. civilians and the doctor were killed when a suicide bomber detonated a car full of explosives just as a convoy with the international military coalition drove past another convoy of vehicles carrying the governor of Zabul province.


Another American civilian was killed in an insurgent attack in eastern Afghanistan, the U.S. military said in a statement.
The attacks occurred the same day that U.S. Gen. Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, arrived in Afghanistan for a visit aimed at assessing the level of training that American troops can provide to Afghan security forces after international combat forces complete their withdrawal at the end of 2014.

For every American killed in 9/11.. we will kill 100 of them, even women, children, elderly, innocent.

Sure damn good way to honor the dead.
 
Looking through foreign news sources, it differs a bit on the timelines... like the pre-dawn attack by the Taliban, but the bombing on the Police building was at 5PM. http://www.ibtimes.com/nato-strike-...s-afghanistan-casualties-suffered-retaliatory

Then another news feed states, "The police were out of uniform and mistaken Taliban, the air strike hit them."

another news sources the US replies to the bombings/strike/killings "Investigating the accusations"

another, " A spokesman for the US-led NATO force in Kabul told the AFP news agency on Thursday that the military was checking the information."

I presume you know how western media is going to report this to the serfs, so search for foreign reporting on the incident... I included one below.

Interesting point, will check out these reports. At this point, MSM, NYT etc have very little credibility.

In other news of peace and freedom.

Oh I can just picture the scene... some goofy French Tornado pilot singing "Frere Jacques" and exclaiming "sacre bleu!" to himself so loudly that he can no longer hear his radio communications finally blurting out "phuque it monsieur... today, for the sins of your 'orrible cuisine, I sentence you all to die! RIBBET and vive le France"

The rest, as they say, is la histoire.
 
That went over my head lol Maybe someone can elaborate for the history-challanged.



[h=1]Afghan president blames Taliban and US for airstrike that left 17 dead, including 12 children[/h] Published April 13, 2013


KABUL, Afghanistan – President Hamid Karzai says both Taliban insurgents and the U.S. military are to blame for an airstrike that killed 17 people, including a dozen children, during a fierce battle in eastern Afghanistan.
Karzai made his comments in a statement Saturday after an Afghan investigation into the April 6 attack raised the civilian death toll from 11 to 17, including 12 children, four women and one innocent man. An American civilian adviser was also killed during the fighting.
The Afghan report says the U.S. strike occurred after the Afghan intelligence service came under attack by militants during an operation to arrest two insurgent commanders in the Shigal district of Kunar province.
