Afghan Officials: US Behind Some ‘Insurgent-Style’ Attacks

There is a logic  to the Afghan thinking.  Black Ops and  covert operations are a norm for any army and intelligence service.   And don't believe tha talk  about 'morality'. The wests wars lack any of that . They have done so for a long long time. Just count the millions  that western imperialism  and colonialism have killed around the world. 

Afghan Officials: US Behind Some ‘Insurgent-Style’ Attacks

Attacks Meant to Draw Attention Away From Civilian Deaths


by Jason Ditz, 
The Karzai government has repeatedly taken the US military to task for killing large numbers of civilians in the occupation, but they may just be the tip of the iceberg, as Afghan officials say a case is being made suggesting the US has also engaged in “insurgent-style” attacks which were blamed on the Taliban.
The officials didn’t discuss the evidence in much detail, but the belief is that many of the attacks were timed to undermine the Karzai government, or in some cases to immediately follow up civilian deaths with a story to distract attention.
There is a fairly substantial list of “suspected” incidents, and incredibly enough it even includes the recent attack on a Kabul restaurant in the diplomatic district, though officials conceded there was no concrete evidence of that one yet, and its inclusion is based on timing.
US officials reacted to the report with anger, saying it “flies in the face of logic and morality,” though they have often reacted similarly to reports of civilian deaths in air strikes and night raids that are eventually proven.
