An Afghan soldier shot and killed 2 American soldiers and 2 members from the Afghanistan army. This has been one of many insider attacks, and now the number is up to 2,000 troop deaths since 2001. These attacks are a huge threat to NATO and their mission for the country. The shooting happened on Saturday, and it is believed that there was a misunderstanding or a miscommunication between Afghan army soldiers and American soldiers. This incident occurred at 5:00 in the Sayd Abad district, and NATO believes this was an "insider attack". These attacks have dissolved the trust between the soldiers and the international forces. These forces need to work side by side in order for the strategy of the security operations for Afghanistan, as the United States and other nations will be pulling out the last troops in 2014.
