| 2010-12-31 |
| [Pak Daily Times] A roadside kaboom blew up next to a minibus at a crowded intersection on a major highway in Helmand, Afghanistan on Thursday, killing at least 14 civilians, officials said. The blast struck the minibus in the Lashkar Gah-Sangin district in Helmand province on the main road running from the city of Kandahar to Herat, said Daoud Ahmadi, a front man for the Helmand governor's office. He said four others were maimed in the blast and that the dead included women and kiddies. The bus was transporting people to a local bazaar, said Ghulam Haidar, who arrived at the scene after learning that two of his brothers had been killed. "There was a huge blast, body parts were scattered far away from the bus," he said. Haidar said he took his cousin and a child who was on the bus to a local hospital. He learned that the child later died. President Hamid Maybe I'll join the TalibanKarzai condemned the bombing as a "blood thirsty" attack, saying in a statement that the explosive was "planted by the enemy of the Afghan people". |

| #4 This is the kind of crap I have been fighting against in blogs since there were blogs. It has never been about what the left's enemies does or thinks. It's about their agenda and their agenda clearly states that if you defend anything with firearms or with the threat of violence, you are more evil than if you do nothing. Stephen Green can be all humorous about the depths of calumny the left uses to disarm their very protectors, but the actual goal of these people is not to be funny, but destruction of everything by sworn enemies or freedom. Humor no longer works. The left is ridicule proof, and I present you as prima facie evidence the climate change movement. We knew it was a fraud when they started with it, we said it was a fraud as they began implementing policies and when it was proven to be a fraud that should have ended the particular bit of insanity. But noooo... Now it's called something else, and the left's agenda continues merrily onwards. And so it will be unless things change. We got to the ballot box, and now we see if the agenda can be wrecked. I am not hopeful. |

| #2 The Taliban uses human shields. American soldiers shield humans. Mr. McCarthy doesn't get it. |

| #1 and yet, according to a WaPo editorial by Colman McCarthy, Taliban and US Troops are morally equal. The left is criminally immoral |
