NATO's response was: "OHHH!!! You DON'T want us to kill innocent Afghans!!! Okay! Why didn't you say so in the first place?!?!?"
Actually, the NATO chief responded like a child found out having smashed a lamp who is trying to divert attention to someone else's irrelevant failings:
He stressed, however, that Taliban and other extremists were in a "different moral category" from coalition soldiers who inadvertently cause civilian casualties.
"Our opponents mingle and mix with innocent civilians," he said.
"We do not intentionally kill; they behead people, they burn schools, they kill women and children."
Right. They intentionally kill. You just bombard them from the air and from great distances because you don't want to take too many chances fighting at close quarters.
Especially when the insurgents are the local civilians, as has been becoming more and more frequent.
"That said, NATO will do and has to do everything in its ability to prevent civilian casualties. For NATO, every single civilian life lost in Afghanistan is one too many."
Bullshit. You've known about this for years and you've done nothing. Fuck off already.
