Breaking News: Today six members of NATO stationed in Bagran, Afghanistan have been killed by a suicide bomber on a motorcycle. No names have been released yet but there sure some out of the 6 were U.S. troops. Bagran is very close to the U.S. base in Afghanistan where U.S. troops continue to train and give advice to Afghan security forces. So yes there is still a war going on in Afghanistan. The Taliban is claiming responsibility for this attack via Twitter. In 2010 there were 100,000 U.S. troops in Afghanistan but many deaths over the years has brought that number down now to just under 10,000. Those U.S. troops are expected to be in Afghanistan until some time next year.
