Australia link in Afghan casualties
Seeing how Australia treat their own indigenous people is it any surprise that Australia has confirmed that its troops were involved in a Dutch-led attack on Taleban militants that killed civilians amid anger at the loss of innocent lives in Afghanistan. The Defence Department in Canberra said yesterday that it was reviewing the operation in Chora Valley in southern Afghanistan and would support a Dutch investigation, being prepared as Afghan President Hamid Karzai launched a blistering attack on "careless" Nato troops. "Afghan life is not cheap and should not be treated as such," he said. Karzai's attack on Nato followed a rising civilian death toll that has outstripped the number of non-combatants killed by the Taleban.
The unknown number of civilian deaths in the Australian and Dutch engagement are among a toll that has risen this year to 211, according to an Associated Press tally of figures provided by Afghan and foreign officials, news correspondents and witnesses. This was more than the 172 civilians killed by militants.Karzai said that in the past 10 days alone more than 90 civilians had been killed by air strikes and artillery fire directed against Taleban positions. There are some smart bombs, but there are some dumb ones as well, seeing as NATO has now killed more civilians than the Taleban this year, how long do you think it will be before for the Afghan people join together to kick NATO out?
