So that's why the US is going around apolgizing and paying money to the families of people who were shot?

The title of the article is about Afghans being beaten. Now, you say they were shot. Which is it? Were they shot, or were they beaten, or maybe neither? Something tells me, you don't care one way or the other, you just want to bash the military. I was in the military for 20 years. Don't bash me.

There was a raid by some Americaan soldiers who did not show professional discipline and adhere to the rules of the UCMJ. Since you say you were in for 20 years you should know what those initials stand for.

Acting on faulty intelligence the soldiers came in shooting in the middle of night with no warning and wearing maske. They shot some people. Some they shot from behind after tying their hands behind their backs. Some people they did not shoot they abducted and beat over several days.

Since the US is already paying reparations the question of whether it happened is a non-issue. It happened. Anybody who does this is slime and anybody who defends it is slime and I'll "bash" them all I want.
