A Delmar optometrist who has provided eye care in Afghanistan for 30 years with a charity organization he directed is believed to be one of 10 people killed earlier this week in Afghanistan, victims of an apparent robbery.
The bodies, including eight foreigners, were recovered Friday in a remote area of Badakhshan province in northern Afghanistan, police told the Associated Press.
Tom Little, who has a Delmar home but, with his wife, Libby, has spent most of the past three decades in Afghanistan, is believed among the dead. One of the local churches that supports the Littles' work, First Presbyterian in Schenectady, put out word to its congregation on Friday that Tom Little had been killed.
Lawrence Roff, senior pastor of First Presbyterian, confirmed the church had disseminated the news as part of its "prayer chain." He said he was informed by someone who had spoken to Libby Little, but Roff said that, to his knowledge, Libby Little had not received official confirmation that her husband was one of those murdered.

Why Are We In Afghanistan If Our Government Won’t Even Designate the Taliban a Terrorist Organization?
...see, it gets worse. We are declaring defeat, essentially, on the political front. Nothing like inspiring our enemies. This is OUR government, sadly.
