Two Americans shot dead in Afghan Interior Ministry

Two members of the U.S. military were shot dead on Saturday inside the heavily barricaded Interior Ministry in the centre of the Afghan capital, Afghan security sources said, as anti-Western protests raged for a fifth day across the country.

It was not immediately clear who killed the Americans, said one Afghan security source. They were gunned down during a scuffle, another source said.

"American and Afghan troops were present at the time of the shootout, but we are unsure who killed them," a senior Afghan security source told Reuters on condition of anonymity.

A spokesman for NATO's International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) said they were aware of "an accident" in central Kabul, but declined to give more details.

[F15Eagle]

Saudi Arabia, Iran, etc. destroy Bibles all the time.

[mardi59]

They call this an “accident”? Stepping on someones foot is an accident, this was MURDER!

It is clear that Odummy has no plan to deal with his muslim friends. He probably has another aapology coming up. Karzai is a backstabber and his people are mindless savages. Shoot them where they stand and ask questions later. This is war, not a garden party!

Can we please nuke Mecca now?

An eye for an eye.

For every US citizen killed in Afghanistan, 77 korans (sp?) should be burned.

2 American officers killed in Afghan ministry

http://www.cnn.com/2012/02/25/world/asia/afghanistan-americans-killed/index.html

The Americans killed were a colonel and a major, the official said.

[Mouton]

“For every US citizen killed in Afghanistan, 77 korans (sp?) should be burned.”

along with those carrying them.

[bigdirty]

More like 1000 Afghans should die for every American soldier that is killed. Collective mass punishment worked when the muslims did it to one another.

[baddog 219]

[RFEngineer]

A Colonel and a Major cannot even go to an Afghani government ministry without getting killed.

How can we get our troops out if we can’t even engage the Afghan government at high levels without being shot?

Obama is on the verge of getting all of our troops there killed.

[Girlene]

Does this bring the total Americans dead to four from this insane koran burning incident? Karzai is fanning the flames of Afghanis’ “passions”. He needs to be taught a lesson.

[nuconvert]

” The Taliban has claimed responsibility for an attack inside the Afghan interior ministry that killed at least two American officers, the terrorist group said Saturday.”

That should put a damper on the Taliban peace talks

[BuffaloJack]

It was not Americans who desecrated the Qurans; it was Muslim and Taliban prisoners who were using the margins of the Quran to send messages back and forth.

Writing in the Quran was the desecration, but it was done by the Muslims themselves.

A desecrated Quran is required to be destroyed by burning.
All the Americans did was to identify the desecrated Qurans and process them in accordance with the Muslim rules for disposing of desecrated Qurans, i.e., burning.

Why hasn’t this fact been brought out?

[crosshairs]

Can we please nuke Mecca now?

Then what direction would O'Bastard turn to when he prays on his rug 5 times a day?

[mcshot]

When I see a comment like this I recall the mysterious ball that slowly descended over the Temple Mount in Feb. 2011. Footage is no longer available at THE BLAZE because of copyright issues but may be available elsewhere.

[crosshairs]

Obama is on the verge of getting all of our troops there killed.

Time for the military to go to the White Hut and arrest this imposter for treason.

[tobyhill]

That's irrelevant to the Muslims.

They were looking for an excuse to riot and they found it but instead of a President to squash these murderous thugs he apologizes and gives them more ammo because they know he's weak.

[crosshairs]

Does this bring the total Americans dead to four from this insane koran burning incident? Karzai is fanning the flames of Afghanis’ “passions”. He needs to be taught a lesson.

Reagan would. Obama is working alongside of Karzai and smiling.

[Girlene]

Yes, Reagan would. obama needs to remember he is CIC, not AIC (apologizer in chief).

And the Obama apology in 5...4...3...

[Dengar01]

I voiced this to my dad after watching a lot of WW2 shows on Military Channel.

Could you imagine if General Eisenhower or even greater, General Patton apologized to Nazis for US troops burning copies of Mein Kampf that Nazi prisoners were using to communicate with each other, with the intent of killing US troops!!!!!!!!!!!

[Dengar01]

I'd also like to add, let's get the F out of that hell hole country. I have close friends stationed there for WHAT??? So terrorist scum living in the 5th Century can take target practice while Barry is golfing???

GET THE TROOPS OUT NOW!!! If Barry wants Troops send ACORN or the mysteriously quiet Code Pink!!!

[Jagdgewehr]

Why hasn’t this fact been brought out?

Because facts are inconvenient. The wrold is now ruled and ran by regimes of deceiption.

[sillsfan]

So let me see if I’ve got this straight:
burning books (intentionally or unintentionally, I give a rats *ss) = killing Americans?
And the U.S. president does nothing?

This idiot makes Jimma Carter look like Churchill.

I really anticipate another American hostage crisis with this boy in charge.

[Girlene]

lol....."That is good." Here's a great apology I can agree with, My Apology to President Karzai on Behalf of Americans

[Truth29]

"It is clear that Odummy has no plan to deal with his muslim friends. He probably has another aapology coming up. Karzai is a backstabber and his people are mindless savages. Shoot them where they stand and ask questions later. This is war, not a garden party!"

I suspect he has a plan. The plan is to force submission of the West to Islam through weakening the US and its allies, imposing a world view that the US is guilty of a multitude of past and present sins, make the US pay for those past crimes, and establish a Greater Caliphate that will impose Islam and Shariah law on the infidel.

[wiggen]

Why? Obama wants another peace prize no matter who has to die for him to get it.

[AnTiw1]

re: ‘i’m sorry’

if i were king id say i found my secretary of defense...right on

[mardi59]

I suspect he has a plan.

***************************************************

I totally agree. He is weakening this country and muslims are using our rights against us, and more and more mosques are popping up around the country. They are even suing due to property owners not wanting to sell land.

Muslims are no longer just using suicide vests. They are in gov., (WH) business, judicial, medical, CAIR, colleges. They breed while we abort.

Show the infidel you come in peace, but have the sword ready when the time is right.

[LibsRJerks]

So, I’m sure a few of our Bibles have defintitely been burned throughout the Middle East, yet we dont’ go on killing rampages.

These savages need to be dealt with in a way that is fitting.

[Navy Patriot]

Then what direction would O'Bastard turn to when he prays on his rug 5 times a day?

I don't know the answer to that question, but it should be obvious to anyone who observes Obama's actions as to whom he prays to.

[Navy Patriot]

I suspect he has a plan.

You suspect correctly.

[lonevoice]

According to wikipedia, you're right. One of the things I hate about Islam is that their demonic cult has compelled me to learn more about them than I ever wanted to know.

Writing on the pages of a Quran is considered to be a deliberate act of blasphemy, punishable by death in some countries, Afghanistan being one. A defiled Quran cannot be thrown away, shredded, or pulped. The "proper" disposal is to either bury or burn the book.

Instead of apologizing, General John Allen should have make a public statement saying that the blasphemers who had dared to deface and defile the Qurans were immediately beheaded by Afghan security. The end.

[iopscusa]

And yet there is a push by the idiots like McCain, Lieberman and Graham to take on Syria and Iran. More of the stupidity of the Democracy Exporters that infest both parties.

[R_Kangel]

It’s still all over the internet about that incident. Just saw it for the first time .... just saw the Fox News report .... very intriguing.

[Mariner]

"He needs to be taught a lesson."

That lesson is simple. Withdraw. Suddenly and completely.

We have no interest there whatsoever and we CERTAINLY don't have any friends we are obligated to protect.

[Chgogal]

Yup.

Yesterday, Krauthammer was in a rage about the “craven apologies” by us. The reason the West apologize ALL the time is out of fear. His rant was classic. Christians allow crucifixes to be put in urine in the name of art. Mormons allow jokes about their religion. Why? Because we (royal “we”) don't slit throats, rampage in the streets, burn down Mosques with people in them, etc. etc. Krauthammer is still waiting for a apology from just one leader of the 56 Muslim countries in the UN for the treatment of the Christians in Egypt.

Me, well I will not honor a religion that honors Honor Killing. As a woman from the West I find Islam offensive.

[RetiredArmy]

No we cannot nuke Mecca now! Obama would never nuke his home town.

[Bushbacker1]

Time to turn the area into glass!
