KABUL – Four Americans were killed Monday when a roadside bomb exploded in eastern Afghanistan, NATO said, making July the deadliest month for U.S. troops in this war.
A NATO statement did not give nationalities, but U.S. spokesman Lt. Robert Carr confirmed that all four were Americans. The deaths bring to 55 the number of international service members killed in July, also the deadliest month for NATO forces.
At least 30 U.S. troops have died this month — two more than the toll for June 2008, which had been the deadliest month for the American force in Afghanistan.

This will be Ohbama's Vietnam. There was strategic reason to secure Iraq. Afganistan is not place to set up a front. On the boaders yes but in country no.
O's personal reasoning will cost many lives and no one seems to care all of a sudden.
God Bless America.

Just remember who it was that put our troops there in the first place!
