ISIS claims Kabul Supreme Court attack that left 21 dead, 41 wounded
[Khaama (Afghanistan)] The Islamic State...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) terrorist group grabbed credit for the deadly attack in Kabul ...the capital of Afghanistan. Home to continuous fighting from 1992 to 1996 between the forces of would-be strongman and Pak ISI/Jamaat-e-Islami sock puppet Gulbuddin Hekmayar and the Northern Alliance, a period which won Hek the title Most Evil Man in the Worldand didn't do much for the reputations of the Northern Alliance guys either.... targeting the Supreme Court of Afghanistan. The loyalists of the terror group operating under the name of Khurasan province, issued a statement earlier this evening, claiming the attack was carried out by the group. The statement was released in Arabic language along with a picture purportedly showing the jacket wallah who detonated his explosives near the court entrance gate. According to the Afghan public health officials, at least 21 people were killed and 41 others were maimed in the attack. The attack was widely condemned in Afghanistan as well as abroad. "This attack appears to have deliberately targeted civilian judicial staff as they were leaving the office for the day," said Tadamichi Yamamoto, the Secretary-General’s Special Representative for Afghanistan and head of UNAMA. "This attack is nothing short of an atrocity. Those responsible for planning and carrying out this horrendous act must be brought to justice." Posted by: Fred 2017-02-09 |
