Afghan air strike: over 100 dead in the U.S.
Denver / USA (dpo) - In an Afghan air strike on the American small town Stantsville near Denver (Colorado) this morning, many civilians were killed. According to reports of the local authorities, more than 100 residents - including many women and children - were killed. The American public is shocked. The attack, however, seems to be a misunderstanding.
Afghan President Hamid Karzai apologized shortly after the air strike to his counterpart Barack Obama for the civilian casualties, but stressed that an intelligence report had pointed out, that Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld were in Stantsville. Cheney and Rumsfeld are former high-ranking representatives of the now ousted Bush regime, which carried out an attack on Afghanistan over a decade ago. After first information, the two Republicans were not located among the dead. U.S. President Barack Obama said, he would talk with Karzai about the matter and called for an investigation of the incident. Karzai himself didn't rule out further air strikes on United States territory.
