This is a sad story. For me, it is even a bit scary, because my son, who is in the Army, is going to be in Afghanistan soon, and he is going to be replacing Polish troops. Because of this, I have been doing some research to try to figure out where he might get stationed and how dangerous it is. Here are two stories which shed more light on the Polish/Afghanistan position:

Not possible. Joe Biden just said the Taliban were not our enemies. Does that comment include the Polish too?

“Polish troops, in common with other Nato forces, are scheduled to leave Afghanistan by the end of 2014.”

Not a moment too soon. What a turd world hellhole Afghanistan is.

The Taliban said it carried out the attack.

And these are allegedly Obama's allies? Can't say they're "We the People's' becasue we the peoples don't like this. Prayers up for family and friends, so tragic.
