Bomb Attacks Kill 8 U.S. Troops in Afghanistan

American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, Oct. 27, 2009 -- Eight U.S. troops and an Afghan civilian working with NATO forces were killed today in multiple "complex" bomb attacks in southern Afghanistan, military officials reported.
Several other servicemembers were injured in the attacks and were transported to a regional medical facility for treatment, U.S. Forces Afghanistan officials said.
"A loss like this is extremely difficult for the families as well as for those who served alongside these brave servicemembers," said Navy Capt. Jane Campbell, a spokeswoman for NATO's International Security Assistance Force's Joint Command. "Our thoughts and prayers are with the families and friends who mourn their loss."
Further details about the event are being withheld pending notification of the families.
Marine Corps Col. Dave Lapan, a Pentagon spokesman, said a complex improvised explosive device attack can refer to the use of several explosives, with additional bombs set to strike first responders to an initial blast.
"A complex [IED attack] usually is more than one, set up in a way to cause maximum casualties," he said.
Yes, the democrat's chickens are now coming home to roost!
These despicable cowards couldn't wait to run out and declare the Iraq
war lost, and now they're withholding vital support to the troops
in Afghanistan, actually considering allowing THAT war to fail! There's simply no other way to put it. The Generals have made their needs know and Obama waffles. WHY?
A pathetic Kerry, who sided with the enemy in Vietnam, Iraq, and now Afghanistan, blames Bush and Cheney for Obama's lack of balls in making a decision to send the needed reinforcements. This is incompetent and dangerous.
