.... because we obviously were low on problems there.

Oh goodie, a U.S. soldier lost his shit and opened fire on Afghan civilians.

10 reported dead, 5 wounded.

Edit: Updated death toll - 16 reported dead, 9 wounded

Yeah, the situation over there wasn't unstable enough without this.

Oh shit!

Course, the Afghans screaming that it is an act against humanity and Islam to kill womne? That one rings a bit false, since they kill their own women rather often.

[kierthos]

No, see, if they kill their women, it's to uphold their culture/religion.

If we do it, it's an act against humanity and Islam.

[herlander_refugee]

How silly of me not to see that!

[kierthos]

Sadly, it's not that far off. Hell, there have been a few 'honor killings' in the U.S. and Canada in the last year or so.

Oh, I know. Apparently if it is Moslem on Moslem, it's ok; if it is a presumed Christian on Moslem....oh, well, hell's bells, the Crusade continues. Or some such shit.
