The latest in a growing number of such incidents, Afghan officials today confirmed that NATO air strikes in the Logar Province killed some 16 civlians. NATO confirmed the strikes but provided no indication of civilian deaths.
The story is remarkably similar to those in the past, with NATO’s official story reporting that “numerous” insurgents were slain in an air strike in a remote district with only nominal government control. Shortly thereafter, the bodies of the women and children dug from the rubble began to turn up.
The local MP claimed that four Taliban had also been killed in the strike, while provincial officials put that number at seven. The attacks apparently targeted a meeting at a house but also destroyed a neighboring house.
The attack is the deadliest civilian killings in the nation in weeks, and comes just days after a strike in Khost Province killed 14 civilians. The US has dramatically escalated the number of air strikes since the ouster of Gen. Stanley McChrystal last year, and civilian deaths have seen a commensorate rise.

It's rather sad how many people would prefer to stick their heads in the sand, rather than enjoy the fun and peace of mind that comes with being prepared for the worst.
It's not being paraniod to prepare for the worst, especially when it saves you money and brings your familly closer together. Hunt, fish, garden etc. If you do it with your familly it's good fun for everyone and saves money at the same time.
Peace!
Also five US soldiers died Saturday and Sunday July 9 and 10. As one of the top US generals retired and insisted that violence is declining in Afghanistsn. Twelve US soldiers have already been reported killed by the DOD in the first ten days of July. This follows 45 US dead in June. The staggering toll of civilian dead plus the heavy US casualties points to an on going tactical and military defeat of US forces in Afghanistan.
I'm a killer, he's a killer, she's a killer wouldn't you like to be a killer too?
Buy yourself and every man-jack in your extended family a firearm. Ammo's cheap compared to a lot of other survival gear. With some dicipline and training they could become an effective fighting unit. To protect what you have, or to take from those who don't deserve.
There'll be a hell of a lot more armed Americans wandering around looking, than sitting sround waiting for the radishes to grow. Be prepared or die!
The American government cares for nothing not there troops inocet civiliansThere own citizens at home of there economy.They care about themself money and power period.Im sure some American soldier have been brainwashsed ANStrurned into heartless killing macinens.But there are many that are normal considering that need to refuse to fight in these illegal wars and be ready to fight any enimys fouren or demestic.Talk your country back with more civillian help than you need.Then bring these scum bag criminals to justice life without parol in the jails hole.Death would be letting them of to easy after killing innocent people including babys.
I have read about 3 or 4 different articles on this news bit and I can't seem to get a fix on the number of innocents that were slaughtered. There was a report yesterday claiming that it was 10. I saw one today in RawStory claiming it was 20 and another in Yahoo claiming it was 45. Whatever the story, the reality is that the US is slaughtering faster than they can spot them. What a travesty! The US is, without a doubt, the biggest terrorist nation in the history of mankind.
even if it is 40 I bet the families of the dead don't feel better because of that particular company.
Mnna more civilians die than we hear about many more.
