(sounds like another case of Taliban fighters claiming that they are now "ex-Taliban" and therefore innocent civilians...)

from MSNBC:

U.S. OFFICIAL DISPUTES REPORT

But a senior U.S. official, who spoke with NBC News on condition of anonymity, said that the Pentagon had ordered the raid after receiving a variety of intelligence “over an extended period of time” that Taliban and al-Qaida leaders were meeting at a compound in the village.

Pentagon sources also said that there were “significant secondary explosions” after the airstrike on the compound, an indication that there were large fuel and ammunition dumps in the compound, which they described as a five-building complex surrounded by low mud walls.
