ok,

the above huffing news post needs some truthful clarification, i believe.......

lets get the------ 'his STORY'---correct, at least, this is 2012!

The Truth----------

"During Iftar, a police commander of the Afghan National Police and his colleagues asked their NATO trainers if they could use the NATO state of the art, gym Facilities."

its my version --- i was not there ---- huffy/ap/cnn was not there

my version is based on History, Scholarship and Science of Iftar(dinner in Muslim nation during sharRamaadhan)

and i talked to some friends in middleEast on their local newspaper accounts.......

you, cnn/huffy/etc..and I.. do know there were nato and Afghan Allies at Iftar -- after Iftar nato three were dead, and their Afghan Police allies were gone..........

truth, of situation would be medical autopsy done by doctor or nurse on dead, and recollection of Afghan Police allies----who are gone..............?

as my writingInspiration at BIA--jenFad,

i have learned from you and other intellectuals, that these Sciences and Medical procedures should be folllowed to arrive at a Truthful understanding of UNKNOWN troubling situations....
