His sharp assessment came as Osama bin Laden's deputy urged Afghans to revolt against coalition forces, and four more US soldiers were killed.
It seems it is not really acceptable to just trot into another sovereign country and shoot up its citizens. A clearly frustrated Karzai said:
"It is not acceptable for us that in all this fighting, Afghans are dying. In the last three to four weeks, 500 to 600 Afghans were killed. [Even] if they are Taleban, they are sons of this land."
I guess no one ever claimed that non-war was easy.
