KABUL -- The Taliban said it had shot down a U.S. military plane in the central Afghan province of Ghazni on Monday, killing all personnel on board.
“The plane, which was on an intelligence mission, was brought down in Sado Khel area of Deh Yak district of Ghazni province,” Zabihullah Mujahid, a spokesman for the Taliban, said in a statement, adding that everyone on board, including high ranking officers, had been killed.
A senior defense official investigating the crash said no senior U.S. official was killed and added that they were still investigating the cause of the crash. No one from the U.S. military was immediately available for comment.

Let the Taliban have that shithole. It would be different if someone else wanted it. No other country in history has ever taken it and held it. Tribes and Warlords still run the place. We wind up arming the enemy because the supposedly legitimate military gives or sells our weapons to them. Let those dog eating, goat fuckers have it.
