Suicide Bomber Kills 48 In Kabul School



BBC: Kabul suicide bomber kills 48 in tuition centre attack

Forty-eight people have been killed and 67 injured in a bomb explosion at an education centre in Afghanistan's capital, Kabul, the country's health ministry says.

Police say a suicide bomber walked into the centre while teaching was under way and detonated his bomb belt.

Many of those killed are believed to be teenagers who were getting extra tuition as they prepared for university entrance exams.

The Taliban has denied involvement.

This latest attack came hours after the Taliban said it could no longer guarantee safe passage for Red Cross staff working in Afghanistan, amid a row over the treatment of Taliban prisoners in a jail in Kabul.

Who the freak kills kids? It is hard to understand the mindset of assholes who think Allah would be pleased by wasting dozens of kids. For what, because they had girls there, it is an F'd up religion in my opinion. It is a murder/death cult IMO.
