Bundeswehr Afghan blunder exposed
In an explosive scoop in 26 November edition, Bild has revealed the existence of "a top-secret video of the Bundeswehr aerial attack" on two tanker trucks, which took place in Afghanistan on 4 September. As the tabloid points out, the video proves that the German army was less than honest about the operation, which claimed 142 lives. Initially, officials in Berlin insisted that there were no civilians among the victims, and only Taliban fighters were killed. Today, Bild wonders if the Minister of Defence at the time, Franz Josef Jung, ordered a "cover up," because the video and an accompanying secret report both "clearly imply that there were civilian victims." Bild's scoop has already claimed two victims in Berlin, where the military chief of staff, Genral Wolfgang Schneiderhan, and another senior Defence Ministry official, Peter Wichert, resigned a few hours after the publication of the Bild article.
