Pentagon Probes New Afghan Bombing Mishap
The Pentagon has received information indicating that U.S. warplanes on Monday might have accidentally bombed a home for senior citizens near the Afghan city of Herat, a senior defense official said on Tuesday. The official, who asked not to be identified, spoke a day after Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld denied a charge from Afghanistan's ruling Taliban that U.S. bombs ripped a hospital in Herat in western Afghanistan, killing more than 100 people.
Smart bombs. Dumb intelligence.
