Jihadist in Afghan army uniform murders three U.S. troops

"The attack is the third this week on coalition soldiers by Afghans they are training." The third one this week. Our troops must regard the Afghan troops they are there to train and help as ticking time bombs, potential killers whom they are not allowed to treat as such and defend themselves accordingly. This madness must eventually stop -- maybe after the last jihadist in an Afghan army uniform murders the last American soldier on Afghan soil, right after the NATO brass and Obama assure us that everything in Afghanistan is getting rosier by the day.

"3 US troops killed by man in Afghan army uniform," from AP, August 10 (thanks to Bill):

KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) -- A man in an Afghan army uniform shot and killed three American service members on Friday morning in southern Afghanistan, the U.S. military command said, the third attack on coalition forces by their Afghan counterparts in a week. The Taliban claimed the shooter joined the insurgency after the attack.
The shooting took place in Sangin district of Helmand province, said U.S. military spokeswoman Maj. Lori Hodge. She gave no details and said the military were investigating.

Taliban spokesman Qari Yousef Ahmadi said by telephone that the attacker, whom he identified as a member of Helmand police named Asadullah, had joined the insurgency after his attack.

Ahmadi said the man had been helping U.S. forces train the Afghan Local Police troops.

The U.S. is hoping the Afghan Local Police will be a key force to fight the insurgency after most international troops withdraw.

The attack is the third this week on coalition soldiers by Afghans they are training to take over once most international forces leave in 2014....

Boko Haram is demanding that Nigeria’s Christian president convert to Islam or resign, a stance that again calls into question the Obama administration’s playing down of religion as the primary motivation for the radical group.

The Reuters version of the story says that this smiling Afghan Muslim **invited the men to dinner** and then...shot them.

I find that completely believable.

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2012-08-10/troops-lured-to-deaths-with-dinner-invitation/4191284

'Troops lured to death with dinner invitation'.

'Dilly, dilly, come and be killed'.

Or, alternatively,

"come into my parlour, said the spider to the fly'.

A copy of this story goes into my 'smilers with knives' file.

From the article linked by dumbledoresarmy:

''A spokeswoman for NATO-led forces in the country confirmed the incident but said it was too early to say whether it was a rogue shooting or due to insurgent infiltration''

What, in the name of God, is **wrong** with these people ? Do they think we are all stupid ?

hmmmm...didn't Salahuddin al Ayyubi, the Kurdish Muslim leader invite a Crusader leader to a dinner whereupon he drew his sword whilst the Crusader drank a glass of wine, The Muslim sliced the head of the Crusader off....

This happened long ago and still the Infidels haven't learned....you simply cannot trust Muslims....

Kind of reminds me of a little Q and A that I saw in the Comments to a UK newspaper article online, on the topic of the insane Rules of Engagement imposed upon British troops.

Q: "How do you turn an Afghan civilian into a Taliban?"

A: "Turn your back on him".

The alternative version of the question is, of course, 'How do you turn an Afghan Muslim 'soldier' or 'policeman' into a Taliban?' and the answer is the same.

And someone here in this forum added the sarcastic corollary: 'How do you turn a Taliban into an innocent civilian?', the answer being 'shoot him'. (The same applies, of course, to all 'Palestinian' Arab Muslim jihad gang members).

The military does not understand Allah, but Mahoundians do...The military PC crowd ignore Allah, but Mahoundians do not...Ignoring the effect of Allah on Mahoundias is what causes these incidents...Allah is the root, the Quran the stem, and Mahound the flower, jihad the nectar...Of course this is exactly what the Obama administration tries hard to cover up...In the process of this cover up, American soldiers are assassinated, along with civilians at home...
This 'workplace violence' has to stop...Understanding Mahoundians understanding of Allah is the key...the Quran the lock...Put the key in the lock and twist... everything will become clear...

You need to sharpen your pencil, GSA reports as of 30 May 2012 $443 billion spent. Let's get the facts correct. $3 trillion is the national debt of some of the worlds smaller countries. You are correct that it is a shame. Having served two tours in AF the counterinsurgency can not be overcome with the last decade of military traing. Most afghans are cowards and will not fight for basic freedoms. Most can not read or write. Sodomy of young boys on Thursday nights aka man love night, women are for making babies and boys are for pleasure, the rape of young girls, bestiality is common in the rural areas we saw that all the time. A more proactive approach is required. You can not detain insurgents cut them loose in a few years and think they are a new citizen. Going back to the beginning at Torah bora whale back fight, heavy air strikes including tactical neutron bombs, daisy cutters and fuel air strikes would have killed everything in the area including bin laden. Pakistan ISI has been supporting al qaeda the whole time. Everybody knows Miriam shah is a stronghold, the entire Pakistani FATA Waziristan is a safe refuge for Talis. Hammer it from above.

This enemy makes Hitler look like a boy scout. I mean Islam is so much more ehhective at gurilla warfare. They even have moles working as advisers in all departments of government. Islam has text books in our public schools and universities. Our legislators are failing to protect its citizens and constitution.

The Muslim Brotherhood, regarded as the oldest and one of the most important Islamist movements in the world, was founded by Hasan al-Banna in 1928 and dedicated to the credo, “Allah is our objective. The Prophet is our leader. Qur’an is our law. Jihad is our way. Dying in the way of Allah is our highest hope.”

The United States must wake-up and get a clue with regard to the ideology and Sharia Law of Islam.
