NATO Backs Down in Afghanistan

I don't care what the reason is, I just say thank God we aren't killing them.

"NATO to reduce use of airstrikes

KABUL - After a spate of US-led airstrikes that resulted in more than 100 civilian deaths, NATO officials have ordered commanders to try to lessen their reliance on air power in battles with insurgents, NATO and Afghan officials said yesterday. Brigadier General Richard Blanchette, NATO's chief spokesman in Afghanistan, said commanders are now to consider a "tactical withdrawal" when faced with the choice of calling in air support during clashes in areas where civilians are believed to be present. The goal of the order is to minimize civilian casualties and encourage better coordination with Afghan troops, Blanchette said (Washington Post)."

How about a COMPLETE WITHDRAWAL from the place, huh?

I would just like to remind you, readers, and the world that LAYING BOMBS on their HOMES and FAMILIES, the littering of DU munitions, the secret prisons, the torture, the families displaced, the lives shattered, the chemicals dumped on them, all based on a BUNCH of LIES!!!

Whatever you think of the "Taliban," they NEVER DID ANYTHING TO US!!!!

We ALL KNOW WHO REALLY DID that BLACK-BAG INSIDE JOB of 9/11, and it wasn't the tribals running around the hills avoiding US and NATO air bombs and artillery batteries!!!!
