More and more civilians are getting killed by foreign forces in Afghanistan

“American air strikes alone have killed dozens of Afghan civilians, perhaps close to one hundred, in less than two weeks, as the fighting in the country intensifies”.

David Walsh is writing an article about the death of civilians for the WSWS: “US continues its killing of Afghan civilians”.

In his report he also argues: “The US military initially dismissed claims that the air strike [in Deh Bala] resulted in civilian deaths” and this “brutal comments express the outlook of colonial occupiers, indifferent to the fate of the natives.”
