Shocking images that may have forced the U.S. military to reopen an investigation into an airstrike that killed Afghan civilians have been published in the media.
The grim, eight minute clip, filmed on a mobile phone in the aftermath of the bombing, shows rows of shrouded bodies laid side-by-side in a make-shift morgue. Among them are at least 11 children, many of them toddlers.
...Afghanistan claims more than 90 people, many of them women and children, were killed in the August 22 strike....

I don't really care, nor can I generate even a hint of sympathy for the animals claiming to be victims. The reasons are clear and obvious to any rational person. Let's reiterate the obvious:
No truly human person would want their children present in a conflict, and in a location, where the enemy, justified or not, is likely to attack. Never. Not ever, under any circumstances.
The ones responsible are the subhuman parents and other adults stuck on stupid: stuck in the delusion that the "Baby Milk Plant" approach to outrage will have even the slightest effect on me, or on any other rational human being.
Whether a dozen or a hundred dozen kids are killed in an attack on savages either killing other innocents, planning to do so, or preparing munitions and explosives to do so is a disaster of their own making.
Made doubly horrible by the reality that they plan it that way, in the now forlorn hope that they can continue using the "children" (which they obviously care little about) as a weapon against us.
And the hedonistic idiots in the "west" react to the propaganda as if they never had a brain in their heads.
What is the feeling that accrues beyond "despair?"
The Daily Mail left out the puppies and kitties.
I’m pretty sure that they also killed some puppies and kittens too.
Olie North and his camera man were along on this raid....they have proof that this is made up. Check fox news
“I hope no innocents were actually killed”
There is no such thing as a innocent in a war zone.
We should warn all those that are in that region that they will be treated as the enemy.
Up to and including termination if necessary.
I’m sorry - this doesn’t prove anything. And I hate to say it, but the media has a history of faking pictures so as to make their side look better.
Given the obvious lack of neither dolphin nor puppy casualites, I’m rather surprised the British press bothered to cover this story. /sarc off They might have a ounce of credibility when they cover suicide bombings in Israel with the same level of concern — considering they’re not (officially anyway) at war with the Jews.
It’s interesting that the victims are all grainy and hard to make out and the angry afghan peasants are in full detail...
Were they were all wearing "baby milk factory" patches written in English?
Now THAT would be "proof"!
The page you have requested does not exist or is no longer available.
They came to our country and killed thousands of innocent Americans. Now they pay the price and will continue to pay the price. Why we play these games on the battlefield is beyond me. Go back to WWII standards and start carpet bombing until there is nothing left.
I agree, 110%
It's war and if you find yourself hanging out with the participants in that war, than you are no longer a "civilian". Keep your children and family with you in that environment, and be responsible for the consequences.
Ho-Hum
Yep, these bodies could be from a market bombing in Iraq, Lebanon, wherever. Who can say with certainty?
Memo to Afghanis and Pakis: Don’t harbor terrorists and you won’t have anything to worry about. Harbor terrorists and you are in the fire zone.
Have a nice day.
Oh well
