The U.S. militarized Afghanistan's police force, funneling millions of dollars to brutal WARLORDS as officials ignored human right abuses, according to watchdog's damning report on America's 20-year war

[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Damning new report condemns U.S.-led $21 billion effort to build Afghan police

  • It concludes that putting the Pentagon in charge of the plan meant police were focused on fighting the Taliban rather than tackling crime

  • That empowered warlords, while U.S. officials ignored human rights abuse

  • The Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction also concludes the strategy turned Afghans off the police and gave the Taliban inroads
