Karzai Asks Americans To Show Restraint

After civilians and Afghan police were killed by possible friendly fire, Afghan President Hamid Karzai has asked the U.S. coalition to show more restraint when attacking the Taliban and Al Qaida.

(AP/Yahoo) As commanders began investigating the 13 deaths, U.S. and Afghan troops kept up pressure on insurgents in volatile Kunar province bordering Pakistan. Pakistani soldiers also deployed on their side of the frontier to stop Taliban-led fighters fleeing across the mountains.

Coalition and Afghan forces have been trying to blunt increased Taliban attacks with a major offensive involving more than 2,500 soldiers in Kunar.

I am so glad we got the Taliban and Al Qaida out of Afghanistan.
