Except for the graves, this photo from the village of Granai looks like most of the rest of Farah Province, where the only river dried up four years ago, and extreme drought prevails everywhere.

About 140 civilians were killed here by a US airstrike on May 4, 2009. The United States lied about it at the time, and they never stopped lying.
