More foreign troop deaths in Afghanistan

Fourteen NATO troop's were killed this past week in Afghanistan. This just goes to show that stability in the middle east is still not quite there. The cause of death was an explosive device and a insurgent attack. This is the first time so many international troops have been killed since August 30th. However, this is the deadliest year of the war for coalition service members as that number stands at 587 pronounced dead. Not to mention, this number includes many American service members and at a time when the war is a subject of fierce debate. Meanwhile, Afghan and ISAF forces have killed many of the insurgents and detained many as well. The war will continue to go on as the campaign to stabilize Iraq and Afghanistan will continue.
