Kabul, Afghanistan (CNN) -- Three members of international forces serving in Afghanistan died in bombings in Afghanistan on Saturday, the military said.

One of the deaths was an American, who was killed in the northern part of the country. No details were immediately available.

A Polish soldier was killed in an attack on his convoy in Ghazni province, the Polish Defense Ministry said in a statement. The nationality of the soldier killed in a third bombing in southern Afghanistan was not yet known.

More than 1,000 U.S. troops have been killed since 2001 when the Afghan war began.


"SHOOT HIM IN THE HEAD"---FOX NEWS' GLENN BECK


Glenn Beck, who never served a day of his life in the military, says our troops should "shoot all captured enemy combatants in the head" in this video from the Fox News "Fox and Friends Show."

Makes one wonder if Glenn Beck has ever heard of the Geneva Conventions or even Rules of Engagement.

KARZAI DOUBTS U.S. AND NATO TROOPS CAN DEFEAT TALIBAN



Karzai Is Said to Doubt West Can Defeat Taliban

KABUL, Afghanistan -- Two senior Afghan officials were showing President Hamid Karzai the evidence of the spectacular rocket attack on a nationwide peace conference earlier this month when Mr. Karzai told them that he believed the Taliban were not responsible.


"The president did not show any interest in the evidence -- none -- he treated it like a piece of dirt," said Amrullah Saleh, then the director of the Afghan intelligence service.


Mr. Saleh declined to discuss Mr. Karzai's reasoning in more detail. But a prominent Afghan with knowledge of the meeting, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said that Mr. Karzai suggested in the meeting that it might have been the Americans who carried it out.


Minutes after the exchange, Mr. Saleh and the interior minister, Hanif Atmar, resigned -- the most dramatic defection from Mr. Karzai's government since he came to power nine years ago. Mr. Saleh and Mr. Atmar said they quit because Mr. Karzai made clear that he no longer considered them loyal
