KABUL, Afghanistan (CNN) -- About 40 people, all civilians, were killed Monday in an attack by U.S. forces on a central Afghan village, Afghan Foreign Minister Dr. Abdullah said Tuesday. "Some 100" other people were wounded, he said.

Abdullah said the dead included 25 family members who were celebrating a wedding in a village in Uruzgan Province.

Casualty figures remain unclear. Wedding party members told reporters about 120 to 130 of the 300 attending the celebration may have been killed, while U.S. defense officials said at least 20 people died in the attack and more than 60 were wounded in the incident.........
Maybe it's "selective memory", but if I recall, the cause of that incident was celebritory gunfire from within the group.

Of course, you wouldn't post that part, would you
