''Washington puts foreign leaders on trial for war crimes, while committing war crimes every day.''
@Paul Graig Roberts
Here's what the Times says:
American and NATO troops firing from passing convoys and military checkpoints have killed 30 Afghans and wounded 80 others since last summer, but in no instance did the victims prove to be a danger to troops, according to military officials in Kabul.
And what is the paper's authority for this astounding admission of atrocity? Not the usual "unnamed sources" or "senior official in a position to have knowledge of the situation," but none other than Obama's hand-picked commander on the Af-Pak front, General Stanley "Black Ops" McChrystal his own self:
“We have shot an amazing number of people, but to my knowledge, none has ever proven to be a threat,” said Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal, who became the senior American and NATO commander in Afghanistan last year. His comments came during a recent videoconference to answer questions from troops in the field about civilian casualties.

Funny you should mention it...
Ook bij Alex Burghoorn is de kurk eraf: hij schrijft voor het eerst over de "de Amerikaanse pro-Israëllobby Aipac". Ik heb het gecheckt.
Hij voorspelt een "aanval op Teheran" die "aan de horizon" ligt. Hij zal proberen ons te laten wennen aan het idee...
