Since it worked out so well the last time<\/a>, they decided to try it again<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\nA huge cache of secret US military files today provides a devastating portrait of the failing war in Afghanistan, revealing how coalition forces have killed hundreds of civilians in unreported incidents, Taliban attacks have soared and Nato commanders fear neighbouring Pakistan and Iran are fuelling the insurgency. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

But given how many things were ignored out of the 2007 video from Iraq, just think of all the possible discrepancies that could be present with 90,000 records? Some of the claims have been as such:<\/p>\n

\n\u2022 How a secret “black” unit of special forces hunts down Taliban leaders for “kill or capture” without trial.<\/p>\n

\u2022 How the US covered up evidence that the Taliban have acquired deadly surface-to-air missiles.<\/p>\n

\u2022 How the coalition is increasingly using deadly Reaper drones to hunt and kill Taliban targets by remote control from a base in Nevada.<\/p>\n

\u2022 How the Taliban have caused growing carnage with a massive escalation of its roadside bombing campaign, which has killed more than 2,000 civilians to date.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yea except that if you look at each one there is not much there to see? We uses our troop to capture\/kill any enemy leaders that we can. It is not the troops job to take that person to trial. Second the Taliban had Singer Missile launchers for awhile now paired with what weapons were left over during the fight with the Soviet Russia. Third we used them to provide air support and can stay in the air longer then any manned aircraft. Finally do you really think that the Taliban will reduce this if we were to leave? <\/p>\n

Oh this one is a keeper. <\/p>\n

2007 Polish troops mortared a village, killing a wedding party including a pregnant woman, in an apparent <\/strong>revenge attack.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Apparent? Yea and that almost got three SEALs jail time, Apparent my ass,<\/p>\n

But don’t worry about double checking, Rethink Afghanistan<\/a> is already running this and it is doing it’s paces around the net. Of course there is no one is even thinking about how this will effect those that are fighting in Afghanistan. <\/p>\n

ADDED Sporkmaster<\/p>\n

The White House has condemned the release stating what we already know<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n“The United States strongly condemns the disclosure of classified information by individuals and organisations which could put the lives of Americans and our partners at risk and threaten our national security,” he said in a statement.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
