Afghan police killed by coalition

Quote:
At least 12 Afghan policemen have been killed by a bomb dropped from a US-led coalition aircraft in south-east Afghanistan, officials say.
How many times have we heard this, incidents involving "friendly fire"????

Did they get bored and just fancied some firing practice????

It happens a lot. Sucks, but it does happen.

Friendly fire is one thing you have to deal with when in a war.

You goin to tell that to the loved ones of the next victims yankeesdood?? When someone in the forces goes into an operational theatre they know the risk of gettin shot at by the enemy, in fact you expect it, but you dont expect it from your allies!!!! I'm sure anyone who has lost a loved one because of "friendly fire" will feel so much better knowing that
