100% true, and just another confirmation that these guys are a bunch of gutless pukes. Why attack a genuine military target when you can take out a crew of engineers who are trying to rebuild your country for the benefit of the people you claim to represent? What is even more staggering to me is that this kind of cowardice somehow generates support for the Taliban. What kind of people would gravitate towards an organization that makes a point of killing aid workers and peacekeepers, not to mention the hundreds of innocent Afghans who are killed or injured during the suicide attacks and bombings?
I fear that this is a war we cannot win, but that does not make me appreciate the sacrifice of our soldiers any less.
