For some reason I had assumed Afghan Freedom War had ended:

Afghan troops 'killed by US friendly fire' in Logar

• 20 July 2015
  
• From the section Asia

A spokesman for international forces said they were aware of an incident involving US forces and were investigating

• A reinvigorated anti-Taliban alliance?
  
  
  
  

At least eight Afghan soldiers have been killed in a US air strike on an army checkpoint in Logar province, south of Kabul, Afghan officials say.
They say two US helicopters attacked the checkpoint in broad daylight on Monday. Several troops were injured.
The defence ministry said the helicopters returned fire after being attacked by insurgents on the ground.
The army commander in the area told the BBC that the checkpoint was clearly flying an Afghan flag.

It is probably not because US media is secretly controlled by secret tapes of Billy Graham and Nixon.
