Afghan Traitor in Uniform kills three NATO troops
 Part of channel(s): Afghanistan (current event)



A gunman wearing an Afghan police uniform has killed three Nato staff in the south of the country, the coalition has said.

The gunman was injured and later detained, Nato said.

Officials did not confirm the nationalities of the killed service members, or any other details of the incident.

More than 20 foreign personnel have been killed in so-called rogue shootings this year.

Observers say this has eroded morale among foreign forces.

"An individual wearing an Afghan National Civil Order Police uniform turned his weapon against International Security Assistance Force service members in southern Afghanistan today, killing three service members," Isaf, Nato's force in the country, said in a statement on Sunday.

Members of the Nato-led Isaf force are training their Afghan counterparts in preparation for a full handover of responsibility for security by 2014.

Revelations in February that US troops burned copies of the Koran at a base in Afghanistan - reportedly by accident - as well as the shooting of 16 Afghans by a US soldier in March have inflamed public opinion against the foreign forces.----

  • they were Brits. And just remember, the Afghans hate the west. You are not like them. You are not Muslim. You are dirty in their eyes and they have no qualms about killing you (or use you in the meantime)
    the west has little to gain from Afghanistan. Just death

  • It's still safer than Chicago. Too bad we can't spend a couple of those billion dollars we are wasting in Afghanistan to fix cities like Chicago and put Americans to work. I can't figure out why our government puts foreign nationals and countries ahead of its own citizens.

  • If he was Afghan and killed 3 ISAF, I'm not sure the term "traitor" is correct. It depends on the mans allegiance. You can't expect his allegiance to be with foreign occupiers, which ISAF forces undoubtedly are, or a government that can be seen as puppets of those foreign occupiers.

    A lot of people won't see him as a traitor, but as a patriot, part of a resistance against occupiers. If a member of the French resistance against the Germans had pulled soemthing like that off, killing th More..

  • We had a reason to be there in 2001. We shouldn't be there now in 2012.

  • There needs to be more mature supervision of these co-relations of training squads of ANA and NATO troops! By the way, checking the article brings up another which says there were 4 British troops, and 3 of them were killed leaving a checkpoint.

    I can only wonder why....

    It's hot as hell, people get angry since they cannot speak the same language, and they yell/slap others from a different part of the world to "slap some sense into them" -- seen it plenty of times...... you can only More..

  • The US spends 2 billion a week on this useless war, to put this into perspective the Chinese have spent 6 billion on their space program since 1992 (that's 20 years), 3 weeks in Afghanistan = 20 years of space exploration by China.
    Is it any wonder the US is going broke.

    BTW - 2 billion is two thousand million.

    • @werdum12 Australia would have spent about $6billion on the war in Afghanistan by the time our troops leave in 2014.... So, your country isn't any better mate...
