The families of 17 SEAL Team 6 commandos who were killed in an ambush in Afghanistan during a helicopter flight to help Army Rangers pinned down by Taliban gunmen accused the Obama administration of deliberately endangering their loved ones for political ends.

During a press conference on Washington Thursday, family and advocates for the fallen troops called into question the rules of engagement that they say prohibited their sons from being able to return fire, and the White House's decision to announce shortly after the killing of Osama bin Laden that SEAL Team 6 was responsible for the raid.

"In releasing their identity, they put a target on their backs," said Doug Hamburger, whose son, Army Staff Sgt. Patrick Hamburger, served among the helicopter's crew.

The event was organized by Freedom Watch, a conservative advocacy group, at the National Press Club. One by one, fathers and mothers of the victims of the crash spoke about what they see as gaping holes or inconsistencies in the review of what U.S. Special Operations considers its most deadly incident.

In all, 17 members of the SEAL Team 6 counterterrorist force were on board the CH-47 Chinook transport helicopter, along with its Army National Guard aircrew, several support personnel and seven Afghan commandos. In all 38 troops died after the helicopter was shot down by what a review determined to be a Taliban RPG over Wardak Province, Afghanistan, on Aug. 6, 2011.

Afghanistan - 10 Years of Failure & Oppression [Documentary]

2013-03-06T00:20:41.872Z

This is a long clip from an important documentary that explores the decade long war in Afghanistan. It was produced as part of Hizb ut Tahrir Australia’s recent campaign on the decade anniversary of the war. It is high time for a honest and rigorous assessment of this wa. The politicians, from all sides, have regurgitated the same platitudes, built on false narratives, for ten years, as more soldiers have died, more civilians have perished and more of Afghanistan has been destroyed.

The documentary covers the following topics:

- Australian blood for an American war?

- An unjust invasion of another nation

- The shifting objectives of a failing endeavor

- Oppression begets consequences

- 1000s of troops dead…how many more to come?

NATO Apologizes After Two Afghan Boys 11 & 12 Yrs. Old Out Collecting Firewood Blown To Smithereens & Killed By NATO Helicopter

2013-03-04T07:39:55.663Z

The Nato-led Isaf force has apologised for the deaths of two Afghan boys, killed when a helicopter fired on them, mistaking them for insurgents.

The boys, aged under seven, were killed on Thursday in Uruzgan province.

Isaf takes "full responsibility for this tragedy", its commander said.

Analysts say civilian deaths enrage the Afghan people and President Hamid Karzai, who recently stopped his troops calling in foreign air strikes in built-up areas.

That move came after a 13 February incident where a Nato air strike requested by Afghan forces killed 10 people, including five women and four children.

'Operational incident'
=============
In a statement on Saturday, Gen Joseph Dunford said: "I offer my personal apology and condolences to the family of the boys who were killed."

He said that the boys - who were tending cattle - "were killed when coalition forces fired at what they thought were insurgent forces".

"I am committed to ensuring we do the right thing for the families of those we harmed, as well as for the community in which they lived," the statement added.

Gen Dunford added that Isaf and Afghan investigators had already visited the village in the central province where the boys lived and met local leaders.

The AFP news agency reported that it was Australian troops who shot the boys, after coming under attack from the Taliban in that area.

The governor of Uruzgan, Amir Mohammad Akhundzada, was quoted by AFP as saying: "The children were killed by Australian troops, it was a mistaken incident, not a deliberate one."

Australian forces, who are deployed in Uruzgan, were involved in an "operational incident" in the province, Australian parliamentary Secretary for Defence David Feeney said on Friday.

He added that the Australian military and the Isaf were investigating the incident.

About 1,500 Australian soldiers are based in Uruzgan province. Their main focus is to provide training and mentoring to Afghan soldiers.

President Karzai has demanded time and time again that Nato-led forces take more care and prevent such incidents from occurring, the BBC's Quentin Sommerville in Kabul, says.

The Isaf (International Security Assistance Force) has reduced the number of such killings, but they keep happening, our correspondent adds.

The Nato-led troops are scheduled to withdraw from Afghanistan by the end of 2014 and have gradually been handing over responsibility for security to Afghan counterparts.
