GWOT Complexities
Suicide bomb kills 80 Afghans just trying to enjoy a little dogfighting fun.
Sounds like bloody savages on that side killed bunch of bloody savages on this side. Interesting commentary that the Taliban banned dog-fighting and replaced it with executions of women. Anyway, this is what it was about:
Wali Karzai, brother of President Hamid Karzai and the president of Kandahar’s provincial council, said the target of the attack was Abdul Hakim Jan, the leader of a local militia whom Karzai said was killed in the attack.
Jan was the provincial police chief in Kandahar in the early 1990s and was the only commander in the province to stand up against the Taliban during its rule, said Khalid Pashtun, a parliamentarian who represents Kandahar.
