Warduj district of remote northern Badakhshan province, an official said on

later shot dead and their bodies handed over to area residents. Most of the
victims were army troops, he said. Mohammad Khawar, the district chief, said the remaining seven security

consulting local authorities, he indicated an operation would be launched
shortly to clear the district of the Taliban.

The US will only leave Afghanistan if the Afghan government is strong enough to not allow immunity to US troops (like Iraq did). I don't think they are that strong.
and because of this evil, many, many, many babies and children will die horrible deaths, far into the future: "More than 400 tonnes of DU ammunition are estimated to have been fired by jets and tanks in the two Iraq wars in 1991 and 2003, the vast majority by US forces. The UK government says that British forces fired less than three tonnes. DU is a chemically toxic and radioactive heavy metal produced as waste by the nuclear power industry. It is used in weapons because it is an extremely hard material capable of piercing armour."
True for Iraq and also true for Afghanistan
"The US and the UK have sought to play down overwhelming evidence that their invasion and occupation has produced one of the most dysfunctional and crooked governments in the world. Iraq has been violent and unstable for so long that Iraqis and foreigners alike have become desensitised to omens suggesting that, bad as the situation has been, it may be about to get a great deal worse."
Ten years after
TEN YEARS LATER, THE DIXIE CHICKS WERE THE ONES WHO TOLD THE TRUTH AND STOOD FOR JUSTICE. GOD BLESS THE DIXIE CHICKS... THEY ARE THE REAL AMERICANS! THEY ARE HEROINES IN MY EYES!
Dixie Chicks right all along
NOT READY TO MAKE NICE
Anyone who supported the war of aggression on Iraq is a mass murderer in my eyes, and the blood will never wash off of you.
REVEALED: Pentagon's link to Iraqi torture centers and death squads
This article failed to mention Negroponte and the "El Salvador option". It mentions the Badr Brigade, but not the Wolf Brigade. Those of us who followed the news on Iraq the past 10 years knew all of this was happening almost as soon as it happened - the Iraqi people told us, and like the Dixie Chicks they were telling the truth. (I have not watched the entire film yet.)
I wish they would see justice on this earth, but since they won't:
May all those evil shits rot in hell forever. Especially Negroponte.
