Numbers of civilians killed by Taliban increasing: NATO

Here is further proof of terrorists intentionally TARGETING CIVILIANS. Something terrorists do because they know they cannot win a fight against an actual military. So being the cowards they are, they target the unarmed. There is a special place in Hell reserved for these pieces of excrement.

NATO-led forces in Afghanistan say the number of civilians being killed in Taliban attacks this year has increased dramatically.

NATO officials say the Taliban killed about 240 Afghan civilians in the first three-and-a-half months of this year, six times as many as during the same period last year.

Officials say most of these deaths were from Taliban suicide bomb attacks aimed at international forces.

They also claimed that there has been a dramatic reduction in the number of civilians killed by NATO troops, dropping from 31 to four this year, but these figures were disputed by local organisations.

One which monitors security and advises aid workers said that at least 60 civilians had been killed by international troops this year.
