U.S. Army general ‘disappointed and shocked’ by Afghanistan massacre

“Everybody knows that doesn’t reflect our standards and our values. Nor does
it reflect the majority of leaders and soldiers who serve here every day as
well as overseas. The organizations and leaders here are as surprised and
shocked by it just as much as we are and we ought to be,” Rodriguez said.

The soldier, whose name has not been released, had been held in Kuwait after
he was flown out of Afghanistan on Wednesday.

The shooting of villagers has harmed relations between Afghanistan and the
United States and Afghan President Hamid Karzai accused the Pentagon of
failing to fully cooperate with an investigation into the killings.
