Think Iraq Bloodbath Is Bad? Wait Till Afghanistan '15

[Geee]

Investors Business Daily:

War On Terror: When the president removes troops from Afghanistan next year, the Taliban won't have to take weapons off the army, as Islamic State terrorists did in Iraq. They'll already have them — $626 million worth.

 

America is leaving behind a security force of largely Taliban infiltrators with U.S. military training, intelligence and weapons. A new U.S. government audit reveals that more than 900 weapons we've supplied to Afghan security forces have gone missing, including 740 M16 rifles and 112 M23 pistols.

 

Earlier this month, an Afghan army soldier used a U.S.-issued M16 to assassinate one of our generals during a high-level visit to a training center near Kabul known as the Afghan equivalent to West Point.

 

According to a leaked Pentagon casualty report, the same rogue shooter wounded a U.S. Army major and two captains, one of whom is now paralyzed below the waist. A Navy non-commissioned officer was also hurt.

 

The Taliban took credit for the treacherous insider attack, which the administration has done its best to cover up.
