I sure as **** will. As a former combat soldier, this is an unprecedented action in an active combat zone. Can't trust the afghan soldiers? Of course we can't, if anyone bothered to read, there are many reports of our "allies" killing us & NATO troops quite often, all the while wearing the Afghan national uniform. SECDEF Paneta there? Cool, certainly a need for NO weapons for the Afghanis, considering. But our guys? Totally unacceptable. Sounds like the general received orders to come up with a "good reason" to disarm loyal American troops when a senior member of the COC was visiting them. PC bull****, plain and simple. Putting on a scared face to keep from offending Kharzi and friends. Time to leave: we are being led by fools and charlatans.
