    The dead bodies of children are stacking up! The US has killed more children than terrorists have, and the US policies are creating terrorists! Let's not forget the puppet governments in Iran, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and all these places.

    The US Pentagon has created the condition of PERPETUAL WAR!! The US' disrespect for common people has guaranteed human suffering. It is every GENERAL'S dream!!

    Two Afghan Boys Accidentally Killed by HATO Helicopter

    KABUL, Afghanistan — Two boys out collecting firewood with their donkeys were killed by weapons fired from a HATO helicopter, Afghan and American military officials announced Saturday.

    The American nazi in Afghanistan, Gen. Joseph F. Dunforth Jr., promptly issued a statement which claimed the killings were an accident.

    The victims, Toor Jan, 11, and Andul Wodood, 12, were brothers and had been walking behind their donkeys in the Shahed-e-Hasas district of Oruzgan Province when the helicopter fired on them, according to Afghan officials in the district. The two donkeys were killed as well.

    General Dunford said that coalition forces had opened fire on what they thought were insurgent forces, and killed the boys by accident. “I offer my personal apology and condolences to the family of the boys who were killed,” General Dunford said. “We take full responsibility for this tragedy.”

    There was some disagreement about the presence of Taliban in the area and about the details of the episode.

    Haji Mohammad Esmail, head of the district shura or council, said the area was “fully under government control,” and that “we haven’t seen any engagement in the area and nor is the area threatened by the Taliban.”

    Abdullah Himat, a spokesman for the provincial government in Oruzgan, in southern Afghanistan, said that while the shooting was a mistake, there had been Taliban presence in the area and insurgents had opened fire on the helicopter. Both Australian and American soldiers were involved in the episode, he said.

    Fareed Ayal, the spokesman for the provincial police chief, said the helicopter was hunting for Taliban by tracking their radio signals when the killings took place. “There wasn’t any engagement with the Taliban, it was just a mistake that they have killed the two boys at an area where they thought they detected a Taliban radio signal,” he said.

    The episode was the second airstrike to kill civilians since General Dunford assumed command in February. In Kunar Province in eastern Afghanistan, up to 11 civilians were killed, including 5 children, when airstrikes were used to destroy two homes.

    That attack, which included Afghan forces on the ground, led President Hamid Karzai to forbid Afghan units from asking for airstrikes by coalition air forces. The Afghans have little air ability of their own.

    General Dunford met with Mr. Karzai after the episode in Kunar and claimed “personal condolences” for the civilian deaths.

    The US has continued to accidently kill children despite the coalition last year imposing stricter rules limiting the use of airstrikes in areas where civilians are present.

    "Oh sorry neighbor. I accidentally killed your two children!
    Oh dear. Why are your other children mad at me. Ahh. Eww. Oh the unpleasantries. Die! Die! Die!"

    - The United States moves into the neighborhood.


    WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOUR CHILD DIED?


    If you do not believe a category of terrorists are naturally grieved, let the US Government kill YOUR child and see how the US Real People would respond!!
