I don't know soul, do you have the figures or just wind?
Can you criticize the US? Hmmm what’s your name and number and I’ll get all patriotic on your act.
*Six children were crushed to death by a collapsing wall during an assault by U.S. forces on a compound stuffed with weapons in eastern Afghanistan, an American military spokesman said Wednesday, the second time in a week that civilians have died in action against Taliban and al-Qaida suspects. *
How many innocent children will the American terrorists kill, before they admit they are doing wrong, and their supporters condemn these attacks, without any excuse?
Oh well the truth is that the Yanks have no business being in Iraq, but having said taht what will it take for them to pull out.
I think the November elections are the only answer. But the Iraqis and Afghans better be ready for more violent measures from the Yanks before November, in the best tradition of American Presidents..
"a compound stuffed with weapons"
What parent in their right minds puts their children in such a place.
*Afghan sources say that the Americans had intelligence that Taleban fighters were preparing an attack from a house. But when the house was bombed, it was an Afghan family which was killed. *
Faulty intelligence is always the American excuse when they go around killing innocent children, in attack after attack.
This manner of arrogance is symptomatic of other comments in this Forum. You should sit on a plane to Kabul and face the parents of these children, face-to-face, and tell their mothers and grandmothers “I’m sorry it was a mistake.” Then you can come back and post the same on gupshup. When you kill someone’s child, you don’t call it a “mistake”.

Well stated Nadia. But from the small band of American extremists you will only see excuses for American child killers in Afghanistan and elsewhere.
