Taliban condemns attacks on Afghan Shi'ites - World - DNA

[Admin Khan]

KABUL, Afghanistan — At least 63 people were killed and scores wounded after bombers struck Shiite religious observances on Tuesday in three cities, detonating explosives amid crowds of worshipers in the first such sectarian attacks in a decade of war in Afghanistan.

Afghans waited for help after an explosion in Kabul, one of three locations in Afghanistan that were attacked on Monday, the holy Shiite day of Ashura. More


The spokesman of a Pakistani militant group, Lashkar-e-Jhangvi, claimed responsibility for the attacks in reports broadcast by Radio Free Europe in Pakistan and by the BBC’s Pakistan service.
Lashkar-e-Jhangvi is a Punjabi group with a long history of cooperation with Pakistani’s intelligence service, as well as close ties to Al Qaeda and the Taliban. It is made up of Sunni extremists who believe in the extermination of Shiites and has helped drive the rampant sectarian violence between Shiite and Sunni groups in Pakistan.
Sectarian attacks timed to this holiday, Ashura, have bedeviled Iraq since the fall of Saddam Hussein, but had been unknown in Afghanistan since the American-led invasion in 2001. The day marks the death of Imam Hussein, the grandson of the Prophet Muhammad, who is revered by Shiites. Afghanistan’s Shiite minority, mostly ethnic Hazaras, suffered savage discrimination under the years of Taliban rule, but had not been singled out for attack since.
A Taliban spokesman, Zabiullah Mujahid, condemned the attacks and called the perpetrators “enemies.”
Two of the attacks — in Kabul, where most of the deaths occurred, and in the northern city of Mazar-i-Sharif, where four people were killed — were carried out by suicide bombers on foot. A third attack, in the southern city of Kandahar, used a bomb hidden on a parked motorcycle, but no one was killed.
Kabul’s police chief, Mohammad Ayoub Salangi, said the city’s death toll had risen to 59 by nighttime; 130 others remained hospitalized, he said.
Shirjan Durani, the spokesman for the police chief in Mazar-i-Sharif, said that the attack had wounded at least 20, although he said that the Ashura celebrations were able to continue thanks to heavy security.
The Kandahar attack targeted a Shiite procession but missed it, wounding two policemen and three passersby, according to Police Chief Abdul Razaq of Kandahar.
The Taliban spokesman, Mr. Mujahid, said: “We strongly condemn this wild and inhuman act by our enemies, who are trying to blame us and trying to divide Afghans by doing such attacks on Muslims.”
Even before the Lashkar-e-Jhangvi claims emerged, mourners and relatives angrily denounced Pakistan and its intelligence service, the Inter-Services Intelligence.
“Pakistan is our historical enemy and want us to never live in peace,” said Noor Mohammad, who was covered in blood minutes after the explosion in Kabul. “What should we do, where should we go? The terrorists are not even letting us carry on our religious practices.”
Outside the Italian Emergency Hospital, which had 60 of the victims, Mohamad Akbar of Wardak Province was anxiously waiting for news of his wounded brother. “Pakistan is responsible for this, the ISI wants to create a conflict between Sunnis and Shias.”
Many saw the attacks as a message timed to follow Monday’s international conference on Afghanistan in Bonn, Germany, which Pakistan refused to participate in because of recent Afghan-based American air strikes that killed 24 Pakistani soldiers.
“As you know, the peace efforts by our government and the international community are going on, but some of our neighboring countries failed in this regard,” said Abdul Qayou Sajadi, a Hazara Shiite and a member of Parliament. Pakistan was Afghanistan’s only neighbor not to attend the Bonn conference. “Now they are trying to divide our people along religious lines, and create another war among Afghans as they did in the past.”
A prominent Shiite cleric in Kabul, Said Mohammad Husain Mohaqiq, made a similar coded reference to Pakistan. “There are some circles who want to create division and distance among Muslims in Afghanistan in order to achieve their goals in our country,” he said. Like other Hazara leaders, he called on his followers to stay calm. “Our Hazara people should be cool-headed and not react because our enemies will take advantage of that to divide our country.”
In Kabul, the suicide bomber was apparently among a procession of worshipers outside one of the main Shiite mosques, the Abul Fazal Abbas shrine in the Murad Khani neighborhood, close to the finance and defense ministries, when he detonated an explosive vest. The mosque was damaged by the blast.
The worshipers were beating their chests to show their sorrow at Imam Hussein’s martyrdom, with some of them also flagellating themselves, using barbed chains to beat themselves on the back.
“The explosion took place inside the crowd,” said a wounded man, Said Zaki, 18, whose face and clothes were covered in blood. “We didn’t see who this person was but he was definitely on foot. We saw 30 or 40 people on the ground missing arms and limbs.”

On a separate note just to let you guys know that the Taliban allowed Lashkar-E-Jhangvi to operate in Afghanistan, Lashkar-E-Jhangvi being a Punjabi Militant group, has also ties with the Islamic movement of Uzbekistan formly led by a Qari Tahir.

Just have a deep think....Lashkar-E-Jhangvi a Punjabi Militant group, has just killed many innocent Afghans.

Lashkar-E-Jhangvi is stirring sectarian violence in Pakhtunkhwa especially in Quetta and in Afghanistan as we have recently seen.

When will this madness end, Pakistanis are killing our own fellow Afghans.

When will people wake up!

[Talal]

this is beyond despicable, may the dead rest in peace but this is ..

[Soldat_Amir]

I spoke with a Canadian soldier on facebook, who just returned from Afghanistan, serving in Kandahar, even he can recall the truck load of Punjabis and Chechens who have been caught alive or killed in action.

He said to me, Kandahar is packed full of suspious looking Punjabis who roam around spying and planning out attacks.

What makes it even more obvious, is the fact that Lashkar-E-Jhangvi's commander was not so long ago released from Jail.


All the trademark of a ISI operation.

When will it end!

[Soldat_Amir]

this is beyond despicable, may the dead rest in peace but this is ..

Yes Its war.

but the ones doing the attacks come from your country! not Afghanistan! so the next time your people cry "raw raw mossad mossad" go and look at your own selfs!

I guess in short, Pakistan at it again? Sponsoring and supporting terrorism.

There are many spokesmen that do not exist.

For example, in June 2011, there was a Peshawar market blast. The TTP denied responsibility and said foreign agents were behind it.

No other groups claimed responsibility until some unknown group called the Datta Khel TTP headed by another unverified figure, Asif Afirdi called a local newspaper and claimed responsibility.

Yeah, calls by previously unverified figures? It has BlackWater written all over it


Asif Afridi does not exist, and that is how it was proven that the Peshawar market terrorist attack was the work of American terrorist outfit Blackwater.

Todays attack was also the work of foreign groups like Blackwater as it will soon be verified.

The New York Times is known to publish unverified reports.

These attacks also happened in Pakistan and Iraq

[Afghanistan2010]

yes and tomorrow ajmal rasheed abdullah ibn al khandaqi will call the news agencies to claim it was an attack by Al Qaeda fil biladil maghreb lol.....hahahaha

(the name above doesn't exist) and (maghreb represent north africa) lol

some joined the enemy of Pakistan the TTP and some went back to normal life.

[tor_khan]

Today's news is undoubtedly sad. Sometimes it's important to reflect on history.

Pakistan is Yazid was a self interested tyrant. Sunnis and Shias can unite around the significance of Yaum Al Ashura in remembrance that there are false pretenders who call themselves the righteous Muslim leadership by trying to exert authority on them. Like Yazid, Pakistan is they are willing and ready to humiliate and kill others Muslims, just to claim a self-deluded power.

i met him in a place where he was working as a security contractor, and i questioned him without revealing where i come from and who i am.
He and his friend were working in iraq and elsewhere and they were nothing more than making buisness (money money).

i was visiting some friends there.

This disease called Sectarian violence has spread to a peaceful Afghan society by the Arabs in the Arab world and the Pakistani Militants from Central Punjab.

Look at this picture of the attack, women and children have not been spared.

Now look the attackers from the past who tried to do the same but were caught

Now, have a long deep think about it, these cowards want to take over Afghanistan by killing off the inncoent people, dividing the country and opening Afghanistan to the hands of Punjab.

Now can you guys understand why I dislike such people so much!

Karzai has made a big mistake calling these terrorists as brothers, he should cut all ties with the Taliban, throw the peace talks into the trash can, secure the border with Pakistan, and advise the intelligence agency to make sure all plots to do harm on Afghans are foiled.

Or we can request the Indian army, especially the one with experience in Kashmir against ISI led Militants, to send in a unit to back up Afghan border control offiers against any attempt by Pakistani Militant groups to attack Afghan targets.


I hope America realizes from this incident of how dangerous Pakistan and its society truely is. I think its prime time for Nato forces to attack all terrorist targets in Pakistan before its too late.

[Soldat_Amir]

If a Pakistani citizen did a act of war on the Afghans as we see now, and the Pakistani authorites brush it aside, it would consider that a call of war, and I think its prime time to attack Pakistan.
