Afghan Civilians Ask Why They're Dying
From BBC News:
"Local woman Sadia Bibi, 50, told the Associated Press that her brother, his wife and their 16-year-old son had been killed in the bombing. "The children were crying and they were very afraid. These planes killed my relatives. We are poor and innocent people. Why are they killing us?" she asked."
I haven't heard the phrase "winning the hearts and minds" in a while.
"Violence has left 800 people dead so far this year."
Actually, that number, in comparison to Iraq is pretty good and we're talking 800 dead civilians.
