NATO says two separate bomb explosions killed three U.S. service members Sunday in southern Afghanistan. No other details were given.

On Saturday, a roadside bomb also killed two U.S. soldiers in the same region.

Meanwhile, NATO says a bomb exploded in a market Saturday in the southern part of Helmand province, killing two children and wounding two others.

Earlier Saturday, a 16-year-old Afghan boy stepped on a homemade bomb in Tanai district of southeastern Khost province. The bomb exploded, killing him.

2. After nine years, one would have thought of something catchy to

call these occupations. Some of the past losers: War on Terror, Global War on Terror (GWOT never caught on), and Fuck Non-White People.

Unrest my ass. Afghanistan is called the Graveyard of Empires for a reason.

Ask the Danes, the Norwegians, and the French, the Czechs the Polish….
