At least seven people were wounded in the evening rush hour attack. Pictures showed a white minibus with extensive damage to its front. The United States, European Union and NATO condemned the attack. Last year, two employees of Khurshid TV were killed and two wounded in a similar attack. Taliban and other Islamist insurgents have repeatedly targeted Afghan journalists, killing 15 in 2018, the deadliest year yet for the Afghan media, according to the media freedom group Reporters Without Borders.

theBahjat The world does not want Afghans to live in peace. The Taliban have killed Afghans so far. Now that the Taliban have joined the United States and the world wants to kill Afghans in the name of Islamic State, it is enough to hurt Afghans. That's enough

Reuters: Don't lie. The Islamic State did not kill, but the Taliban did

Can't be realDonaldTrump said ISIS was 100% defeated

how could they call themselves Islamic!?

Martyred?!?! Worshippers of taghut will be the fuel of fire, they are not martyred. Plus, for the enemies of Islam, no matter which group takes the responsibility, good news is they are finished.

Horrifying Police Body Camera Footage Clearly Shows Current State Of AmericaCINCINNATI—Following a traffic stop earlier this month by a University of Cincinnati police officer that ended in the shooting death of an unarmed black motorist, authorities confirmed Thursday that the disturbing video recorded by the officer’s body camera clearly and graphically shows the current state of America. “Thanks to this footage, everyone can see the brutal and unconscionable condition of the United States in the year 2015 with their own eyes,” said Hamilton County prosecutor Joe Deters, who noted that the violent nature of circumstances in America may make the footage disturbing for some to watch. “It’s stomach-turning to go frame by frame through this video and see the grotesque realities of our country unfold in such visceral detail. But it’s vitally important to have a visual record that tells the truth about this nation rather than be forced to trust the accounts of those who might have something to cover up. Without this video, we would be left to dispute about what really happens in America.” Deters added that, after watching the footage, it was hard to argue that the country was not to blame for the violence that was captured on film. Honestly, at this point the Onion is one of the few news sources I trust. Cuz the cars black? I don’t get it The Onion is once again too on point
