[quote="WSWS above"][b]34 [/b]US and other occupation troops have been killed in at least 25 such attacks. This compares to a total of 35 killed for all of 2011in at least 21 attacks. [/quote]
Did WSWS add '3' from this week's attacks??
They should've added '20'.
Note this as well:
[quote]In the latest devastating attack, insurgents struck at the command staff of the 4th Brigade Combat Team of the 4th Infantry Division in Asadabad, the capital of Kunar Province[/quote]
All of these killings are decapitating the 'command staff'. Where is the Security for these officers? The Flag is being 'captured' by the Insurgency and in more than 1/3 of these incidents, they're getting away.
The Worst Scenario possible.
[quote]Corrigan said she learned that Capt. Manoukian was killed while having a meal with a group of Afghan police officers Thursday. Manoukian was on his fourth tour in Afghanistan when he was killed. He was shot by an Afghan police officer. [/quote]

[quote] The U.S. government identified four Americans who were killed along with an Afghan civilian in a twin suicide attack in eastern Kunar province on Wednesday: USAID foreign service officer Ragaei Abdelfattah, Air Force Maj. Walter D. Gray, of Conyers, Ga.; Army Maj. Thomas E. Kennedy, of West Point, N.Y.; and Command Sgt. Maj. Kevin J. Griffin, of Laramie, Wyo.[/quote]
Plus three MORE marines at least. Just this week. Not including the wounded.
