“Why did they not stop the killings?”
This article brings up even more questions, ones we know our government will do everything in its secrecy arsenal to keep from us.
ZANGIABAD, Afghanistan Along the road to Zangiabad, where a U.S. soldier on Sunday murdered 16 innocent Afghans, including nine children, one destroyed village follows another.
There is very little life around here. Most houses have been leveled and paths show the blackened remains of exploded roadside bombs. Here and there a burnt-out car reminds you of the many suicide attacks.
The little life there is travels inside the heavily armed American military convoys that thunder up and down the road. Here, these convoys are king.
