#1 But US forces have said the equipment will be scrapped so it does not fall into enemy hands.

Someone at least has a clue.

#7 Each of their vehicles is worth over 100,000 dollars. They are all from the Afghan nation's blood," said Shakir, a Bagram resident.

Wrong. They are from the bank accounts of American taxpayers.

Too expensive to fly them back to the United States and, even if it wasn't, the government doesn't want them competing in the car market with new Fords, Chryslers and Chevrolets. But that would be one way for Uncle Sam to recoup some of his expenses and it would be very cool to have one sitting in the driveway.

Hey, hey now. Let's blame the right people. The murderers are in Washington, DC.
