May 18, 2010 -- Updated 1838 GMT (0238 HKT)

This article was about five American citizens killed by a bombing in Afghanistan, and also a Canadian officer, an attack ordered by the Taliban. Local doctors said that at least 12 civilians were killed and 48 injured, and hours after the explosion, a nearby field was littered with the charred body parts from the explosion. A White House Deputy said that this was one of the many sacrifices the troops and their families are making, and that while the troops are fighting for good, the Taliban offers only bad. A few Taliban members said they would lay down their arms and rejoin the Afghanistan government in order to bring peace, but it’s still unsure.
