Kids Were Driving Home From a Volleyball Game

<<As details of the Monday night shooting along the roads of Afghanistan’s Khost Province continue to come out, NATO has revised its initial claim that the four teens killed included two “known insurgents” and two “suspected insurgents,” conceding that they were actually all innocent civilians.

<<The four were driving home from a volleyball game along the highway when a military convoy spotted them. After flashing their lights at the car, the troops opened fire, killing everyone in the car.

<<The victims included two brothers, Faizullah and Nasratullah Mansour, and their cousins Maiwand and Amirullah Mansour. The eldest, Amirullah Mansour, has recently become a police officer in the region, while the other three were still students.

<<After the initial denial, NATO is now expressing “regret” over the killings, the second incident of NATO troops attacking a civilian vehicle in a week, and promised to deploy “training teams” to “implement the critical lessons learned.” Exactly what those lessons are, besides not killing children on their way home from a volleyball game, are unclear.>>

Too bad there were no video cameras inside the truck, or we could have heard some hilarious jokes going down as these four young lives were snuffed out.

Tee just can't help himself, can he.  So sad

Geez, Kramer, do you know ALL their little inside jokes?  Got access to DOD videos none of the rest of us can watch?

What the frak does that have to do with anything? If that's a joke, it's not a good one.
Your reality, sir, is lies and balderdash and I'm delighted to say that I have no grasp of it whatsoever.
