Analyst's note: Absolutely must read. Are we infuriated about what is being reported -- or not -- in this article? It is hard to find the words appropriate for a public forum. In this case, I let the words of one my Marine Corps friends, who pointed me to this article, describe our feelings about it. "Here is one more outrageous example of just how perverted the current administration's understanding of it's responsibilities to the American population and AMERICA is!
While our own government rapes the careers of honorable American Servicemen in the "halls of justice" and at the hands of unscrupulous prosecutorial teams for alleged crimes against "innocents" in Afghanistan, they are simultaneously giving cover to a people and their "religion of peace" who are murdering those same American Servicemen!
Those in Congress who do not show a complete outrage for this decision can expect to be dealt with in the appropriate Blogs and news venues! It's time to stand up and show us exactly what the differences are between the status quo and your proposed "new leadership"!!
Are there ANY AMERICANS LEFT IN US GOVERNMENT?
I'm .... (really infuriated)!! Is anyone else?
More to follow...BE SURE!"

"ISAF limits details of troops killed by Afghans
Marine Corps Times - By Tom Vanden Brook - USA Today
Military commanders in Afghanistan have stopped making public the number of allied troops killed by Afghan soldiers and police, a measure of the trustworthiness of a force that is to take over security from U.S.-led forces.
The change in policy comes after at least three allied troops have been killed by the Afghan troops they trained in the past month and follows what appears to be the deadliest year of the war for NATO trainers at the hands of their Afghan counterparts.
The International Security Assistance Force in Kabul had responded to previous requests for details on cases where Afghan troops — screened and trained by ISAF and Afghan officials — have turned their weapons on NATO troops.
Navy Lt. Cdr. Brian Badura said ISAF has a new policy to release only limited information about casualties, leaving the responsibility for detail to the troops’ home countries. The policy went into effect in the latter half of 2011, he said.
Since 2005, more than 50 troops had been killed and 48 wounded by Afghan troops, according to data released before the policy changed and USA Today research. In 2011, Afghan troops killed at least 13 ISAF troops.
Anthony Cordesman, a military analyst at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, said information about the killing of U.S. troops by Afghan troops or police is important because it shows whether the U.S. withdrawal plan is realistic.
“It’s not just a matter of the number of ISAF or U.S. troops getting attacked. The real question is will this force be loyal to the government?” he said. “The constant question has to be, ‘Did you rush out to set impossible levels of quantity without addressing the quality of Afghan security forces?"
