Hitchens says:

"The final depressing figure is the index of civilian casualties caused by aerial bombardment from NATO forces: This year will show a large increase in these, as well, and that is one of the chief concerns underlying Sir Sherard's bleakly expressed view that the current U.S.-led strategy is "destined to fail.'"

“Some of [Obama'] comments about Afghanistan and what we are doing there supposedly– just air raiding villages and killing civilians. That’s reckless."

What Obama said:

"We’ve got to get the job done there and that requires us to have enough troops so that we’re not just air-raiding villages and killing civilians, which is causing enormous pressure over there.”
