Afgan civilians continue to get caught in the crossfire

This article was mainly about how a roadside bomb killed 20 Afghans. On the bus all except 1 was either a women or a child. In America we wonder why many Afghan's would be upset that the U.S. is in there to help. But as the article reports, last year alone over 2,043 civilians were caught in the crossfire by either Taliban or by military operations. By all means what we are doing is for the good of the country. But if i were in an ordinary Afghan's shoes I think i would be quite upset with the number of innocent dieing.
