16 Afghan Civilians, mostly women and children, were executed in their sleep by US Soldier(s) and then burned in attempt to cover up atrocity. (In Iraq they called in missile strikes after a similar atrocity.) The "Rogue", lone actor, scenario is being used, again, to stress this isn't the norm. They used it for Haditha and other atrocities in Iraq("rogue actors" at Abu Ghraib). As in Haditha massacre, the alleged "rogue" soldier is an officer. Civilians deaths in Afghanistan have been under reported by US/NATO forces and embedded journalists. Just as they were in Iraq, Libya. |
