"An investigation by the military has concluded that American airstrikes on Aug. 22 in a village in western Afghanistan killed far more civilians than American commanders there have acknowledged, according to two American military officials. The military investigator’s report found that more than 30 civilians — not 5 to 7 as the military has long insisted — died in the airstrikes against a suspected Taliban compound in Azizabad." (Oh, and don't feel sorry for the dead babies above: they are all Taliban fighters. That is what the US military has said, and how dare you dispute claims of the US military).
