Since March 2009, at least 57 people, including 32 American troops, have been killed in at least 19 attacks in which Afghan service members have turned their weapons on coalition forces. Another 64 were wounded. The totals do not include the attackers, many of whom were killed in shootouts or in suicide blasts.
(Wha? Thought it was just a matter of black mkt uniforms. Narrative breaking down?)
The attacks have continued despite efforts to improve screening of recruits and crack down on the illegal sales of police and army uniforms.
...
Whether the infiltration is widespread, the claims are hard to contest, and serve to shake popular confidence in the growing army and police forces.
Adding to that distrust is the problem of Afghan soldiers and police officers — and impostors dressed like them — attacking military installations and government compounds.
(Whew, thats better. Gotta have that rigor in messaging.)
