US-led forces have killed four civilians in Afghanistan's Takhar Province, triggering angry protests against the killing of civilian in the war-ravaged country.


The foreign forces bombed a house in northern Afghanistan on Tuesday night, killing four civilians, including two women, a Press TV correspondent reported.

Following the incident, angry Afghans took to the streets to protest against the killing of civilians by the US-led troops.

Amid growing civilian casualties in the war-torn country, US-led troops on Sunday fired rockets at local residents in eastern Afghanistan, killing several women and children. The children were all girls aged 8 to 15.

Civilian casualties have long been a source of friction between the Afghan government and US-led foreign forces.

The loss of civilian lives at the hand of foreign forces has dramatically increased anti-American sentiments in Afghanistan.

In May, a US-led airstrike in the eastern province of Kunar killed nine children, aged between seven and nine, as they were collecting firewood.

Following the May incident, the US and NATO commander in Afghanistan, General David Petraeus, announced that Washington was “deeply sorry” for the airstrike, adding that “these deaths should never have happened.”

From the expats in Kabul to the communists in KP, these so-called nationalists are the filthiest of all, attached to the very governments they claim to go against. They are either cowards, or they are real crap- self serving. Such leaders allow crimes to be committed against their people whether it be night raids and airsrtikes, or drone attacks.

Fortunately, these people will never have standing with any Afghan besides the lackeys that support their treasonous and criminal ways, and criminal subservience to foreign criminals.

I know some of you don't want to read this, but you must read this. These are our brothers, sisters, mothers, and fathers who are getting killed. May Allah(swt) grant them janut al-firdaus.

Do I see no condemnation from those so-called Pashtun nationalists.

Never in our history do people support the bloodshed of their own.

Their indifference is repulsive.
The great leaders from our history and in our present cared for every single life, the life of animals and trees.



Such indifference to the suffering of our people truly makes them not even worthy of conversation. If you know such people in real life, do not even bother looking at them, for they are cursed. It is very sickening.
