Your Afghan civilian-military strategy is a murderous stench we smell, see, hear and breathe.

Posted in AFP News, Antiwar News, Why We're Against the War on March 8th, 2011 by afghans – 4 Comments
Careful examination of numerous reports, and images/video footage, along with eye-witness and victim testimonies, clarify that Afghan civilians are the main targets of deadly attacks by North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and International Security Assistance Force (ISAF).

Two days after the Obama administration released its December review of the war in Afghanistan to a public made increasingly skeptical by the war’s rising human and economic costs, a coalition of young Afghan peace activists issued their own review.
