Thanks for the heads up Joe.
This was bound to happen. You see your buddies getting shot, blown up and all sorts of nonsense and then the people that you're suppose to be training start killing coalition forces...
A fool could see this from a mile away. Anyway check this out from the BBC.
I hope the President of the US has enough common FUCKING SENSE to not apologize for this.A US soldier in Afghanistan is reported to have killed a number of Afghan civilians after walking off his base in Kandahar province.The soldier - who surrendered to the US military authorities - is thought to have had a breakdown, reports the BBC's Quentin Sommerville in Kabul.
Nato said it was investigating the "deeply regrettable incident".
Local tribal leaders said women, children and men were among the dead in Panjwai district.
The governor of Kandahar province, Tooryalai Weesa, confirmed there were casualties, but said the exact number of dead and injured would be made known later.
The Nato-led International Security Assistance Force (Isaf) said in a statement that US officials in Afghanistan would work with their Afghan counterparts to investigate what happened.
"This is a deeply regrettable incident and we extend our thoughts and concerns to the families involved," Isaf added.
Our correspondent reports sources in Kabul as saying the soldier had some kind of breakdown just before leaving the base and opening fire on civilians.
The incident comes as anti-American sentiment runs high in Afghanistan following the burning of copies of the Koran by US soldiers at a Nato base last month.
US officials apologised, but the incident sparked a series of protests and attacks that killed at least 30 people and six US troops.
But I'm not holding my breath.
NOTE:
To all the apologist out there understand something. We've been teaching these people for 10 years to form an army. We've pumped in billions of dollars to build up their country.
All we get in return are our soldiers and Marines killed and wounded and the projects that we're building FOR THEM destroyed almost as soon as they're built.
We owe the people of Afghanistan nothing. Not even an apology...
