Afghan War: US Soldier Kills 16 Civilians

Ghastly outcome from US imperial policies.

From the Bloomberg,

A U.S. soldier shot to death 16 Afghan civilians in their homes before returning to his base and being taken into custody, Afghan and NATO officials said.

The shooting spree yesterday threatens to reignite anti- American protests weeks after a Koran-burning incident triggered violence. Women and children were among those killed in the attacks in the southern province of Kandahar, which has been a stronghold for the Taliban.

Ever wonder why the proliferation of anti-American sentiment especially in places where the US intervenes? And why there will always acts of reprisal via terrorism? Interventionism breeds terrorism.
