WHY RESPECT PEOPLE THAT WANT YOU DEAD?


Submitted by: Sandra
Green on Blue is another term for jihad against US soldiers (or NATO) by Muslims, often Taliban or sympathizers who have infiltrated the Afghan forces. Many of these deadly attacks on Americans are not reported by NATO or media. We should respect them by leaving and never giving Afghanistan another penny of taxpayer funds. via truth-out.org’s Pocket Guide Advises US Troops to “Avoid Arrogance,” “Respect Islam....

US military personnel in Afghanistan have been instructed to “respect Islam, Koran or a mosque” and “Afghan women, elders and children” in order to prevent so-called “green on blue” attacks, where Afghan security forces turn their weapons on the coalition soldiers who have trained them, according to an unclassified Army pocket reference guide obtained by Truthout. The reference guide, “Inside the Wire Threats – Afghanistan Green on Blue,” referred to as a “smartcard,” was distributed to US military personnel in early February, right around the time “green on blue” attacks started to increase, along with a detailed “handbook ” under the same name, which Truthout is seeking from US Army Training and Doctrine Command under a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.

If US soldiers are unarmed during a “green on blue” attack they should “execute rehearsed actions on contact,” and “have an escape route and plan in mind – hopefully two.” Under a “last resort” if there is an imminent danger to the US soldier’s life, “act with extreme violence.”
Read it all at Truthout, we’ll post more pending approval from the author. Also check Diana West on our blogroll who has been a leading voice in exposing the lack of transparency and reporting on these jihad attacks. Then tell Your Elected Officials to bring our troops home ASAP!
