'Up to 100 dead' in Afghan raid
   
Up to 100 Afghan civilians may have been killed during an air raid by US forces during a joint operation targeting suspected fighters, a provincial governor has said.

If the claims are verified, the deaths in Farah province on the western border would be the largest loss of civilian life in a single incident since US-led forces invaded Afghanistan in 2001.

Rohul Amin, the governor of Farah province, said on Wednesday that he feared that 100 civilians had been killed in the Bala Baluk district of the province, about 600km from Kabul, the capital.

Amin said that the Taliban were reportedly using civilian homes to take shelter during the fighting.

Earlier reports had said that 50 civilians had been killed in Monday's raid.

4. I feel the same.
   
Seeing this and the Senators laughing at people requesting a single-payer advocate be at the table make my stomach turn.
   

Where are your calls for impeachment?

Lots of bellyaching and griping but not one call for impeachment so I guess Obama's "war crimes" are acceptable.

"Those are our war crimes now..."

Actually that was actor Ron Silver who later repented of those sentiments and became a vocal hawk after 9/11.

The primitives are still calling him "Obama."  Until I see them calling him names like ChimpyMcCokeSpoonHalliburtonBrownPeopleKiller, then it's all faux-outrage.

There's a poll going on, on Skins's island right now, about what to call Pa Kettle.

It wasn't primitivish enough to bother bringing over here.

Anyway, the majority of primitives agree they should call him "0bama."

And the majority ol primitives agree that those who don't like Pa Kettle should be obligated to call him "Mr. President."

Oh my.  In all the sordid and tawdry history of Skins's island, did any primitive ever call George Bush "Mr. President"?

Anybody know?

BreadandRoses sez:

I feel very hopeless about the terrorism we are inflicting against the Afghan/Pakistan people. As with our monstrous bombing of Iraq, we all go about our business here (me, too, no excuses) while our "heros" are incinerating and dismembering infants and children.

The peaceniks over there are not too happy with messiah.  But they are treading very, very carefully, lest they be deep-sixed. 

Lo and behold, somebody thought of unintended consequences: 

The unintended consequence of our brutal Occupation of Afghanistan is that it is driving Pakistan to the FANATICS.

Not sure he gets it quite right, though.  Pakistan has always been full of the worst kinds of assholes.

Nice to see they admit the Taliban are their heroes.
