March 22, 2011 - Six Libyan villagers are recovering in hospital after being shot by American soldiers coming in to rescue the U.S. pilots whose plane crash-landed in a field. The helicopter strafed the ground as it landed in a field outside Benghazi beside the downed U.S. Air Force F-15E Eagle which ran into trouble during bombing raid last night. And a handful of locals who had come to greet the pilots were hit - among them a young boy who may have to have a leg amputated because of injuries caused by a bullet wound... [Daily Mail (UK)] H/t: UrukNetAnd just in case you're wondering where the Libyan government got all those weapons they use to kill civilians... They got them from the same people who invaded them and as seen will also be killing civilians by the score soon.
"In 2009 alone, European governments -- including Britain and France -- sold Libya more than $470 million worth of weapons, including fighter jets, guns and bombs. And before it started calling for regime change, the Obama administration was working to provide the Libyan dictator another $77 million in weapons, on top of the $17 million it provided in 2009 and the $46 million the Bush administration provided in 2008." [Source]Here's an excellent analysis of the "state of the Libyan internal state" and the West's so-called "democracy" which is bought with bombs, unmarked money delivered by the pallet-load, and corrupt dealings with ruthless people:
STRATFOR's analysis: Libya, the West and the Narrative of Democracy» In Tokyo the entire municipal water system contains twice the nuclear radiation as previously noted due the ongoing nuclear crisis at the Fukushima nuclear power plant where there is now electricity to all of the reactors but no pumps are running yet to cool the burning rods or shield the atmosphere from radiation.
"The West has been walking a tightrope of contradictory principles; Libya became the place where they fell off."

As we have pointed out, the Libyan uprising consisted of a cluster of tribes and personalities, some within the Libyan government, some within the army and many others longtime opponents of the regime, all of whom saw an opportunity at this particular moment. Though many in western portions of Libya, notably in the cities of Zawiya and Misurata, identify themselves with the opposition, they do not represent the heart of the historic opposition to Tripoli found in the east. It is this region, known in the pre-independence era as Cyrenaica, that is the core of the opposition movement.
United perhaps only by their opposition to Gadhafi, these people hold no common ideology and certainly do not all advocate Western-style democracy. Rather, they saw an opportunity to take greater power, and they tried to seize it. [More @ Stratfor] H/t: UrukNet for the tip and the link in the excerpt.
Hamid Karzai names areas to be handed to Afghan forcesAbout Lashkar Gah... There was a US presence there a long time ago:

They are the relatively peaceful provinces of Kabul, Panjshir and Bamiyan, the cities of Herat and Mazar-e Sharif and the town of Mehterlam.
But he also named Lashkar Gah, capital of the volatile Helmand province. [More @ BBC]
“Little America” in Afghanistan: Is the US Repeating a Failed 1950’s Experiment in Social Engineering?» So much for the U.S. 'stand up' for women's rights. Malalai Joya, despite having visited the United States numerous times as a former female member of Afghanistan's Parliament, with five failed assassination attempts in her history, was just denied a visa which would have allowed her to tour the United States for her newly published memoir "A Woman Among Warlords" and speak in the US.
When you look at footage of the fighting in Helmand today everyone assumes it is being played out against an ancient background of villages and fields built over the centuries.
This is not true.
If you look beyond the soldiers, and into the distance, what you are really seeing are the ruins of one of the biggest technological projects the United States has ever undertaken.
Its aim was to use science to try and change the course of history and produce a modern utopia in Afghanistan.
The city of Lashkar Gah was built by the Americans as a model planned city, and the hundreds of miles of canals that the Taliban now hide in were constructed by the same company that built the San Francisco Bay Bridge and Cape Canaveral... [More, with links, @ Firedoglake]
