AOL News is reporting this morning that a combined American-Afghan commando unit called in NATO air support which killed a regular Army Afghan border security unit along the Pakistani border. The government is calling the slain soldiers “martyrs” and is also calling for an investigation of the commando unit’s actions.
The piece is entitled Afghan govt condemns NATO airstrike on soldiers. That pretty much says it all.
Apparently this incident was not a “fog of war” incident but occurred when the border security unit knowingly fired upon the commandos. Still and all, the Afghan government is supporting the border security unit. Odd, don’t you think?
