File under: Taliban

#1 The Kunduz operation took place a week after a deadly NATO air strike on two hijacked fuel tankers in the province that left up to 90 people dead, most of them civilians.

More warping the news to fit an agenda, I see. The first reports were that 54 people were killed, mostly Taliban, and another 20-30 injured. This report says 90 killed, mostly civilians. I saw one report, either here or somewhere else, where the death toll was set at 170, virtually ALL civilians. It may be time in Afghanistan to go with a "scorched earth" policy, beginning in Kabul and ending up in Karachi.
