[quote:Anonymous Coward 23813214:MV8xOTkwODIyXzMzNDM5OTQzXzdBNkI5RjIz] Google a list of empires and nations that have invaded Afghanistan throughout history and tried holding on to it. I believe the list of nations is quite extensive, but their success in holding Afghanistan has been ZERO. The Americans should have learnt from the Russians' mistake in the 80s. Superpower or not, you [b]can not[/b] defeat a determined and well-entrenched guerilla army. [/quote]

WTF...the leftwing media practically had a ticker running every single day during the Bush administration with "How many dead" and now these daily attacks by the ASSHOLES WE TRAINED is buried in some back page bullshit?...
Front page NBC World news is "Foreigners involved in consulate attack"......unreal...Maybe they can ask Obama what kind of "super power" he wished he had a few more times...and make the Whitehouse "Soup of the day" a bigger headline.
Updated at 5:05 a.m. ET: Four soldiers fighting with the NATO-led alliance were killed in an apparent insider shooting in southern Afghanistan on Sunday. Local authorities told NBC News that the victims Americans, but NATO would not confirm the reports.
The shooting took place in Zabol, a southern province where U.S. forces are based, and came a day after two British soldiers were shot dead by an Afghan policeman while returning from a patrol in southern Helmand province - a stronghold of the Taliban-led insurgency.

KABUL -- A man thought to be an Afghan policeman killed two NATO soldiers in southern Afghanistan's Helmand Province on Saturday before he was himself shot dead, security and coalition officials said.
The incident follows an attack Friday on NATO's Camp Bastion in Helmand Province. Two U.S. Marines were killed at the base, where Britain's Prince Harry is stationed.
