Don't Let Them Get Away With Murder

Go to http://www.facebook.com/rethinkafghanistan and sign the
petition calling for an independent U.N.-led investigation. We
can't let U.S. and allied special forces get away with a cover-up.
Heres why: On Feb. 12, U.S. and allied special forces attacked what
turned out to be a baby shower in Afghanistan, killing two local
officials and three women, two of them pregnant. Instead of getting
immediate medical treatment for those civilians who were not killed
instantly, reports indicate that the special forces personnel
focused on destroying evidence of their crime, going so far as to
dig the bullets out of the bodies. The public relations team under
McChrystal's command fought for weeks to obscure the truth. They
lied about finding the women dead when they arrived. They smeared
journalists who questioned their initial story. On April 4, they
finally admitted to killing all of the innocent victims, including
the women. Now, after all of this outrageous behavior, General
McChrystal says we should trust his forces to investigate
themselves. That's ludicrous.
