Friendly Fire Massacres US/UK Soldiers More Efficiently Than Taliban

That's the trouble with war. People go mad. Do strange things. Play dirty. Minds are destroyed. People stop thinking clearly. They find themselves doing things they'd probably never have even thought about had it not been for this 'human' activity we call war.

Yesterday a US army officer went mad at Fort Hood and murdered 11 colleagues, wounding a further 30. He now lies wounded in hospital awaiting an inevitable trial.

Major Malik Nadal Hasan is a Muslim who was about to be deployed to Iraq. He was a born American citizen (Virginia) and ironically worked as an army psychiatrist. So he'll understand the process over the next months as other experts attempt explaining what went so catastrophically wrong inside his own head.

The previous day an Afghan rogue policeman took advantage of being in a friendly working relationship with UK soldiers and shot 5 of them dead.

So now we really do know the Afghan police have been infiltrated by the Taliban from the highest to the lowest rank.

Don't trust no one is the new message.

I'll report more war adventures as they happen.
