Another bombed Afghan wedding.

37 killed and 35 wounded when American planes bomb Afghan wedding party.

"37 civilians including 10 women, 23 children were killed and 35 others including the bride wounded in the bombing and firing of Coalition forces which lasted from 2 p.m. Monday until late that night."

I fail to see how this does anything but make people hate us.

President Hamid Karzai said the issue of civilian casualties was the biggest source of tension with his main backers, the United States, and called on President-elect Barack Obama to make it his top priority to stop the killings of innocents.

We've been slaughtering people by the thousands for the last seven years in that country. You'd think we were even by now.

I was talking to a tough guy ex Marine friend of mine tonight, a guy who was in the Gulf War. He surprised me.

He said he is not only resolutely anti-war, he can't stand the idea of a fight. "Everything is so vulnerable. You can push someone the wrong way and he's dead or worse."

How can we make more people see that?
