The Army knew that an ambush was planned against Clint’s platoon that morning, but prosecuted Clint anyway for murder. This despite the fact that unidentified Afghans charged their position on a motorcycle coming from a road, Old Chilliwack Road, a road controlled by the Taliban. The decision to bring charges under the circumstances makes no sense, unless explained within the context of the political prosecution for paying homage to the Afghans for the Kandahar massacre.
