Seven US soldiers died in two separate Afghan attacks Saturday.  This many lives have not been lost in a single day for some times, but this week it has been a problem.  The first five died from an explosive device in southern Afghanistan, and the following two died when a Afghan National Army soldier turned his weapon on them.  Nineteen US soldiers have died in Afghanistan in the past week.
