But most of the assaults on civilians recorded here, do not appear to have been investigated. French troops “opened fire on a bus that came too close to convoy” near the village of Tangi Kalay outside Kabul on 2 October 2008, according to the logs. They wounded eight children who were in the bus.

    Brendan-

    This is a good day. Sunlight is a good antiseptic. Maybe now the populace will read how our government squanders lives, wealth and prestige.

    When i say an ugly day, I meant in the sense of “oh god, now i’m going to spend the day reading about dead children.” and to me, that’s ugly even if I celebrate the truth coming out.

    It’s also an ugly day for the Obama adminsitration, which now owns this war. and for pakistan because the US can’t ignore the fact that Pakistan is helping the Taliban.
