They use their French name when they cut and run.
How fitting.

Typical liberal blameshifting. Next time try blaming the terrorists who blow up the bombs, not the tactics of the soldiers working to protect you.

"The group had about 80 international volunteers and 1,400 Afghan staff in the country before the attack, which led it to suspend several projects."
I wonder how many Afghanis were being treated by the above health care providers versus the number being treated by U.S. military personnel? This NGO doesn't like the fact that its efforts pale in comparison to the better organized and financed aid programs under the direction of the U.S. military. I'd be willing to bet a significant portion of the 1,400 Afghan staff become employees of the U.S. aid programs, and the net effect of the MSF withdrawal to the overall provision of health care service in Afghanistan is negligible.
