Afghan officials involved in the investigation in a March 11 Kandahar Massacre have changed their story, saying that there was no confirmation that multiple US soldiers took part in killing the 16 civilians.
“To my knowledge, everybody in the villages said only that somebody had told them that they had seen several foreign troops in the villagers where the shootings occurred,” noted one of the top district officials, “but nobody personally said that they had seen a group of troops in this incident. The evidence collected from the villagers was not enough to confirm that there was more than one shooter.”
Previous reports said that more than a dozen troops had conducted a “night raid” against the two villages targeted. The US has insisted that Staff Sgt. Robert Bales snuck off the base and acted alone in the attack.
There has been no explanation of the “several troops” discrepancy, and the US government has so far provided no evidence in its case against Bales, leaving plenty of opportunities for speculation about exactly what happened late that evening in Kandahar.
Not a personal fan of the Taliban but whenever they get around to beheading these 'Afghan Offical' traitors who have been bought off, I can't feel sorry after seeing the misery those civilians experienced. Shame for the poor civilians when your own leadership could care less about you…
This figures!!
This figures and no surprise at all !
What's really going on………. Where IS the fourth estate…??? MIA again…….. ??????? Not the press's fault though, it is the perps who run the sharp stick squad……… they don wan no stinkin press not in their bed…..
RE: Terrorism alert: KGB total brainwashing technique
US Ministry of Defense provides automatic guns and weapons to thousands of potential terrorists who can commit the same or similar crime as during this Kandahar massacre of civilians in Afghanistan or during the Fort Hood (Texas) shooting where on November 5, 2009 a single gunman killed 13 people and wounded 29 others. Why is it so? This is because some part of Russian KGB uses a brainwashing technique that requires only a few hours and leads to total mind control. After GULAG KGB brainwashing, such military personnel people can take guns and kill many others and themselves.
I repeat this brainwashing technique requires only a few hours of intimacy for total mind control (so that there is no confusion). This can be easily achieved due to, for example, prevalent promiscuity and lack of any public awareness about this method and KGB people who use such brainwashing. Note that such crimes are nearly impossible to prove, since the brainwashed people either kill themselves or, if they survive, will say only those things that were ordered them to say.
Feel free to forward this message to others and people who make decisions.

My understanding from a week ago or more was that when Bales was seen sneaking off the base, the Afghan security guard there notified the higher ups and, when they determined that Bales had taken his weapon with him, they sent out search parties and launched the helicopter. It may have been the search parties the villagers saw since I don't remember hearing any of them saying that these 'groups' of soldiers were shooting at anyone; they were just seen there.
Did the search parties become a cleanup crew on their own volition or by orders?
I wonder how much that "clarification" of what the Afghan Officials "understand" really cost the ISAF command? It's already been benchmarked that an Afghan life is worth approx $5000 so, maybe $80,000? What a bargain – anything under a $1M is chump-change.
Not only that, but nobody personally saw the killings except maybe traumatized family with head wounds and who knows what that might make you say, or do, and for that matter, what evidence is there that they didn't do it to themselves, or in revenge for our freedoms!!?
