"4 US troops die in Afghanistan; Bomb attack sign of perils in east region" by Fisnik Abrashi, Associated Press | March 16, 2009
KABUL - A roadside bomb killed four American soldiers in eastern Afghanistan yesterday - new evidence of rising violence in a region where clashes and attacks in the first two months of 2009 more than doubled from the same period a year ago.
The spike in violence along the border is an early indication that roadside bombs and other ambushes are likely to surge as thousands of new US forces arrive in Afghanistan this year. Brigadier General Richard Blanchette, a spokesman for the NATO-led force, confirmed that a roadside bomb killed four US troops in eastern Afghanistan. A US statement indicated that the troops were based in Jalalabad.
A suicide bomber, meanwhile, attacked a NATO convoy in Kabul yesterday but instead killed two passers-by. They were among 18 people killed yesterday, officials said. In another bomb attack yesterday, the mayor of Kandahar in southern Afghanistan survived a roadside bomb blast that killed a civilian and wounded two others, said Najibullah Khan, a police spokesman.
And NOTHING about the CIVILANS we are wasting, eh, war press? See why I'm tired of the same recycled regurgitations, readers, and why I no longer believe the MSM reports -- particularly regarding Muslims.
