Back in March an American soldier killed another Canadian soldier and we are finding about it now.

U.S. Army Confirms 'Friendly Fire' Deaths

When are the Americans going to wake up to the fact that their military sucks as far as not fixing their problem they have been having with friendly fire kills.

According to the American Friendly Fire Notebook the American soldier has been having this problem since World War Two.

Now Americans would argue that they have a large force of soldiers and if it weren’t for them we would be in worst situation.

So is it right for American soldiers to be justified in killing allied forces and not take responsibility for it?

How are we supposed to support the Americans in these missions if they keep on shooting us in the back as was the case back in March and why did our Prime Minister keep this information from us?

Stephen Harper is getting better at flipping pancakes at the Calgary Stampede.

I hope he calls an election soon he needs to be defeated so he can open up a pancake house in Alberta.

An American soldier was also killed in the incident and by no means was it considered justified. If you weren't so busy trying to bash Americans you actually look into the facts.

Just to set the record straight, Private Robert Costall, Canadian Forces, and Sgt. John Thomas, were both killed during a firefight with the Taliban by friendly fire. Due to previous attacks and the threat of more approximately 30 Canadian soldiers were rushed in the bolster the American and Afghan soldiers at the forward base. Pte Costall and Sgt Stone were at almost opposite ends of the base. There were also other American soldiers injured in the incident. The report does not mention the nationality of the soldier who was manning the machine gun that caused the deaths and injuries.
