Echoing similar sentiments of the puppet Iraqi government, the puppet Afghanistan government wishes that occupation troops had to abide by increased rules that protect civilian lives.  These puppet governments are between a rock and a hard place because the American government has very little interest in restraining occupying forces in any way. 

Afghan Govt demands new rules of engagement

Afghanistan is demanding a renegotiation of the rules for international troops in the country after 90 people were killed in US-led attacks on Friday.

The Afghan Cabinet wants to review the “limits of authority and responsibilities” of international troops after 90 people, including 50 children, were killed in the air strikes in Herat.

A Government statement says air strikes on civilian targets, unilateral searches of homes, and illegal detentions of Afghan civilians must be stopped.

About 70,000 foreign troops from 40 countries, including Australia, are in Afghanistan.

The country’s Government wants them to be accountable under rules consistent with Afghan and international law.

The coalition forces say 30 militants were killed in the Herat air raids but they are investigating the incident.

Australia has about 1,000 troops serving in Afghanistan.
