Consider the following eyewitness accounts from distraught villagers in Bandi Temur, Afghanistan. Asreported in the May 27, 2002 edition of the New York Times: "They shot my husband, Abdullah, and theybeat me and bound my hands and eyes." From a wailing mother came the cry: "They shot my son,Muhammad Sadiq. He was 35. They shot him in the legs." Most distressing was the story of another motherwhose 3 year old daughter ran in fear from the soldiers. "They were shooting....I could not see anythingbut she was running. We only found her the next day. She was in the well, she was dead."
