A huge suicide bomb ripped through a secure area of Kabul at the height of the Wednesday morning rush hour, killing at least 90 people and wounding more than 400. They managed to destroy 500 families, I suppose this is how they celebrate the Ramadan. I wonder how many lives more will this death culture consume until Muslims will start to reject it. http://edition.cnn.com/2017/05/31/asia/kabul-explosion-hits-diplomatic-area/
they are outguned on the battle field they have to use guerrilla like tactics as this, our bases are harden and cant be penetrated..so they will go after soft targets
The characterization that it's a mindless attack doesn't show much understanding of the situation. It states in the article you posted that their focus was diplomatic targets. I believe the targets were German and Turkish. On a side note 'They managed to destroy 500 families' seems like an appeal to emotion that might not really belong in a current events topic.
They managed to harm 500 people, none of them were German or Turkish. Do you mean only mass murder in Paris or Manchester should appeal to emotion ? If you don't please refer me to some response of yours on those threads that said such a thing. BTW 500 families of innocent people who were targeted are 500 families no matter if they live in Paris or Kabul. Maybe in Paris the blind guy or the legless girl will be able to live the rest of their life in a reasonable fashion, while in Kabul not really.
You're right. In Iraq, there were hundreds or thousands of terrorist attacks after the invasion of USA. Have you ever heard that Western media were crying about the dead children of Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, etc?
Well a failed attempt at hitting their target doesn't mean that wasn't their target. Seems to me you're operating under the assumption that I'm indifferent to the suffering of people in the ME and SWA. I'm not. I just get frustrated with people who get outraged at civilian deaths from a VBIED, but feel our civilian kill count is just the cost of doing business. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/24/...stigation-airstrike-civilian-deaths.html?_r=0 Please note that I don't know your posting history so I don't necessarily claim you're one of those individuals. On that note by the way, you won't find any self incriminating posts about the terrorist attacks on Paris or Manchester in my history. Wasn't posting her back then, but I assure you I don't have a similar flair for theatrics; regardless of the target of violence.
The responses to the attack in Munchester is 50 pages. The responses to the attack in Kabul is not even a single page. The phylosophy of the people behind those two attacks is the same. The means are the same. The only differnce are the victims nationality.
Yep, many people place more importance on victims from places where violence is less expected. Barring extremely close personal tragedy I am not one of those people. Death is death. Violence is violence. Doesn't matter who or where you are. It all matters, and tugging at heart strings doesn't help any of it. If you'd like to link me to any of those threads I can go drop a token comment to that effect. Would that leave you satisfied that I'm consistent in my views?
