More than a dozen Afghan witnesses and victims testified over the weekend as part of a hearing to determine whether U.S. Staff Sergeant Robert Bales will face a court-martial for allegedly slaughtering 16 Afghan civilians in March. In harrowing video testimony transmitted to a courtroom at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, the witnesses, including several children, recalled being shot at and seeing their loved ones murdered. One young witness remembered shouting, “We are children! We are children!” before seeing his sister get shot.
