[Bluebear]

Dozens of American troops were injured when a suicide attacker detonated a truck bomb outside a NATO base in eastern Afghanistan, NBC News reported Sunday.

The explosion occurred at 5:30 p.m. local time on Saturday (9 a.m. ET Saturday) in Wardak province, on the eve of the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terror attacks against the United States.

The attack on Combat Outpost Sayed Abad killed two Afghans — a security guard and an interpreter — and also wounded 25 Afghan civilians, NBC News reported.

No matter how many of our sons and daughters are killed or wounded. No matter how many BILLIONS of our tax dollars get squandered to feed the War Beast, Inc.
