There is a really easy way to cut down on the number of green on blue shootings in Afghanistan, Disarm the Afghans in any situation where they could be a threat to NATO troops.
Far from being a ridiculous suggestion, this is a common practice for the US military, who disarms their own people in Afghanistan when the SECDEF visits, and who restricts firearms on stateside installations, leading to events like the murders of 13 troops on Fort Hood.
The military has long since passed the point where political correctness is prized above force protection. If we are not willing to take drastic measures to protect our own people from our alleged allies, its time for us to leave Afghanistan. And its time.
