Report: Today's "Green On Blue" Attack In Afghanistan Involved An Entire Afghan Army Unit

Today a US Army Soldier and an American contractor were killed in an attack by our "allies" in the Afghan National Army. The fallen soldier is the 2,000 American killed in the war.

What seems to make this attack different is a report of a firefight between an entire Afghan National Army unit and an America convoy.

We can't get out of that shit-hole fast enough.

Our men and women accomplished the mission they were sent there to do long ago. Helping to make that Godforsaken place part of the civilized world isn't a job for the military. Quite frankly, I'm more than happy to let them roll around in their squalor.

I hope our exit plan is accelerated and mostly I hope if involves arming every tribe with enough weapons to keep them busy killing each other for a long, long time.
