Holger Asks Why #11: Double Standards


Holger Asks Why...



Why is it that when a handfull of civilians in Afghanistan are killed by accident in an American or NATO airstrike, the Afghan government and President Karzai issue an immediate condemnation and demand an immediate response from the U.S. government or NATO, yet when the Taliban bomb a market in an Afghan city or village and kill Afghan civilians by the dozens and dozens, there is not a single word uttered by either the Afghan government or Karzai himself?

Simple, the taliban can't be squeezed for bereavement costs.
