A political analyst tells Press TV that the problem in Afghanistan is that there is no law to restrict international forces activities and the Afghan government is not authorized to trial them if they commit any crimes.


This comes after British forces in Afghanistan have been accused of killing four boys in Afghanistan's southern province of Helmand in October. According to a report published by the Guardian on Tuesday, a group of lawyers recently sent a letter to British Defense Secretary Philip Hammond, demanding that the UK government investigate the alleged killings.

Press TV has conducted an interview with Habib Hakimi, political analyst, to further discuss the issue.

Given that truth tends to be the first casualty of war - I think this news story needs more journalistic peer review.

Ringo: You are most likely right, but today President Karzai said U.S. forces are causing all the insecurity in Afghanistan. See my latest posting.
