Default Thousands rally against our soldiers killing indiscriminatly

Quote:
Thousands of people gathered to demonstrate, protesting at the large number of civilian deaths and blaming the US patrol for shooting passers-by.
And you want to hear what our military says to get around these facts and attempt to justify what they are dong?

Quote:
Spring offensive
The US military said a minibus containing explosives was driven at the convoy, injuring one soldier.
US troops were then attacked from several directions and returned fire in defence of the patrol.
British journalists don't come right out and say, since their safety is tied to our troops to some degree, the Military is lying through its ass again. Instead it politely says:

Quote:
Our correspondent says there has been a huge increase in the number of suicide attacks over the past 12 months, but a coordinated ambush is relatively rare.

Wow, we aren't even welcome by our puppet President we installed. I guess nobody is happy with our abilities that know anything about what we are doing. And so he's condemning America on this brutal random killing spree our troops did.

Quote:
Afghanistan's president Hamid Karzai condemns the deaths of civilians shot by American troops. At least a dozen Afghans died near the eastern city of Jalabad when American troops opened fire after a suicide bomber struck their convoy Sunday. The U.S. military says the Marines acted in self defense after being caught in a "complex ambush" that involved the bomber and small-arms fire. The Marines responded by opening fire on a roadway filled with civilian cars and bystanders.
Renee Montagne speaks with BBC correspondent Allistar Leithead, who's in Kabul.

Harsh, is there anything your willing to fight for? You don't respect anyone that was stupid enough to voluteer to serve in our military, you don't respect the adminstration, I guess you don't have much reason to smile about these days.

Afghans Protest US Strikes
In Afghanistan, protests continued Tuesday over a pair of US military attacks that killed at least twenty-five people on Sunday. At least two thousand people blocked a main road leading to the capital Kabul. The protests came as NATO forces launched a major operation against Taliban fighters.
Has this been getting *ANY* airtime on corporate controlled American "news"?

The ones that are doing the protesting, no doubt, are love children, tree huggers, and peace nicks in general.....not that there is anything wrong with this...in principial, it is their right. But, to question anyone in a combat situation, as to their rules of engagement..by apsanteeism proxy, is unjust to the tenth degree.......Before you cast a giant shawdow of doubt, one must get his/her ass in the grass so that they to might have a chance to come home and protest a little...against idiots.....There is an old saying..."If you go into an investagation with a certainity or having your mind already made up, then you will conclude with doubt". Point: give our kids the beneifit of a doubt, after all it's not like they are wacking peoples heads off. These kids are already in a world of shit, and it should be up to us at home to at least provide some air freshner.........BD

When one is in combat mode, mentally speaking and there is an accidental casuality, or death by friendly fire, for it is surely not murder, as there was no premeditation.....There was no crime committed......for after all, they are walking around in such a shape as one would not be able to drive a ten penny nail up their tails with a sledge hammer....when a bunch of screaming idoits come at you shouting and one blows himself up......just walk a mile in these kids shoes....before you write them off as murder suspects.....BD

So it looks like these kids got rattled and raced back to the base shooting at anything that moved. Then their alibi was "it was a complex attack with ambushers everywhere". Nobody is buying it, not the natives, not the press, not the other governments. Despite this I have a little sympathy for the kids. They weren't trained and hardened sufficiently for the job. Not really their fault. It will be interesting to see where the blame gets placed. On them, the bad training we supplied them, or reckless judgment that ordered them there...
