Agence France-Presse November 23, 2009 Afghan attacks kill four US soldiers: NATO KABUL: Insurgent attacks and bombs have killed another four US soldiers in Afghanistan, the NATO-run International Security Assistance force said Monday. Two were killed by a roadside bomb and a third died in a militant attack on Sunday. A fourth soldier was killed by a improvised explosive device on Monday, ISAF said in a statement. "Four ISAF service members died in the last 24 hours in Afghanistan," the statement said. All the casualties were US nationals, it added. There are more than 100,000 international, mainly US, troops stationed in Afghanistan to battle Taliban-led insurgents who are trying to topple the Western-backed government in Kabul and expel foreign militaries. The insurgency has gained pace every passing year with 2009 so far the deadliest since the 2001 US-led invasion ousted the Taliban regime. The latest deaths took to 481 the number of foreign troops killed in violence in Afghanistan this year, according to an AFP tally based on the independent www.icasualties.org which counts losses in Iraq and Afghanistan. More than half this year's fatalities are US nationals. =========================== Stop NATO http://groups.yahoo.com/group/stopnato Blog site: http://rickrozoff.wordpress.com/ To subscribe, send an e-mail to: [email protected] or [email protected] Daily digest option available. ============================== --------------------------- ANTI-NATO INFORMATION LIST --^---------------------------------------------------------------- This email was sent to: [email protected] EASY UNSUBSCRIBE click here: http://topica.com/u/?a84x2u.bNM5nn.YXJjaGl2 Or send an email to: [email protected] For Topica's complete suite of email marketing solutions visit: http://www.topica.com/?p=TEXFOOTER --^----------------------------------------------------------------
