warning to team B.

The Only Law is the USMC (UNITED STATES MILITARY CODE) aka the ONLY LAW after the US C. and BoR.

It's an INTERNAL MATTER. keep out or you are next.

warning to internationalists, world chaoters, un agents, crooks and terrorists :

us soldiers can do only 3 crimes (1 betray their oath, the biggest crime of all, 2 violations of the USMC, 3 violation of the rule of engagement).

I hope that you will understand that sometimes brainwashing or believing in lies can be dangerous... civilians from dresde, tokyo and thousand of other cities in the world experienced it.

and don't chew gum when your superior speaks Cheesy.

Médecins Sans Frontières says patients burned to death in their hospital beds in a bombing raid the UN describes as a ‘tragic, inexcusable’ war crime

The US president, Barack Obama, has pledged a full investigation into an apparent US airstrike on an Afghan hospital that killed 19 people.

Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) said patients burned to death in their beds during a bombing raid that continued for half an hour after US and Afghan authorities were informed the hospital had been hit. The United Nations said it could amount to a war crime.

“Twelve staff members and at least seven patients, including three children, were killed; 37 people were injured,” the charity said. “This attack constitutes a grave violation of international humanitarian law.”

MSF said despite frantic calls to American and Afghan military officials in Kabul and Washington, the attack continued for another 30 minutes, with the main hospital building housing the intensive care unit and emergency rooms being targeted.

“The bombs hit and then we heard the plane circle round,” said Heman Nagarathnam, MSF’s head of programmes in northern Afghanistan. “There was a pause, and then more bombs hit. This happened again and again. When I made it out from the office, the main hospital building was engulfed in flames.”

“Those people that could had moved quickly to the building’s two bunkers to seek safety. But patients who were unable to escape burned to death as they lay in their beds.”
