France threatens to pull out of Afghanistan
France is suspending its training operations in Afghanistan, and it's threatening to withdraw its entire force from the country.
The threat comes after an Afghan wearing an army uniform shot and killed four French troops today. It's the second time this month an Afghan soldier or someone in an Afghan uniform has killed French forces.
There's also word today that six U.S. Marines are dead after a helicopter crash in Afghanistan.
An official says there is no indication that the helicopter was hit by enemy fire.
