At least 28 civilians were killed and as many as 60 others wounded yesterday when Afghan forces in the Helmand Province fired rockets into a wedding party. Many of the casualties were women and children.
Afghan forces have been fighting with the Taliban in Helmand Province off and on for months now, and reported that yesterday’s incident took place during a skirmish with Taliban forces.
The Taliban have actually retaken a considerable amount of the Helmand Province since US and British forces drew down, withdrawing back to the capital city.
Despite this, NATO continues to tout Afghan forces as perfectly capable of fighting the Taliban on their own. This incident shows that they can’t defeat the Taliban outright, and will kill a lot of civilians along the way, which does make them a rough analogue of the NATO occupation forces ravaging the countryside for the last 13+ years.
and before coming here i thought the taliban were the one that did this based on the news report i read and listened to. there is a reason that i come to this site
American training at its best
Now they have the US supplied weapons to kill each other. The killing and relatively peaceful country that Saddam was able to make Iraq.
No problem for christians and white (they call themselves as anti-terrorists) , you all don't need to appologize and condemn all your brutal killing. But, if this was committed by muslims, you will definitely expose Islam as Terrorism.
