NATO Does Lie

NATO is not credible anymore. They have been caught lying.

Nato said they killed dozens of fighters which turned out to be a lie.

BBC said that they had killed only 8 Talibans and yet they went on to claim 80.

they are obviously going to try to put all kind of spin on this and make excuses.

but the fact is they put out a statement that was simply untrue.

shame on NATO. they lied to us. we can't believe them now.

'Dozens of Taleban' die in battle

Nato forces in southern Afghanistan say they have killed about 70 Taleban fighters following an ambush.

Troops fought a four-hour battle after a large-scale insurgent attack near the town of Musa Qala in Helmand Province, the alliance says.

A Danish patrol serving alongside British troops came under fire outside Musa Qala and called in air support, a Nato spokesman said.

Between 70 and 80 suspected Taleban died in the battle and no Nato troops were killed, he added.

There was no independent confirmation of the death toll...

Wont go so far to call nato a liar. They have corrected the failure
