  • Blast rocks eastern Afghan city

    At least nine killed in explosion at entrance of Jalalabad airport amid continuing outrage over Quran burning.




    Don't tell me Ghundal; the Taliban bombed a civilian airport because one of them lost relative to a NATO airstrike right?


    At least three people have been killed and five others injured in a large explosion at the entrance of the airport in the city of Jalalabad in eastern Afghanistan, police say.

    Provincial police spokesman Hazrad Mohammad said "a very strong'' blast hit the airport in Nangarhar province on Monday morning.

    According to Reuters news agency, Afghan Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack saying it was "revenge" for the burning of copies of the Quran which sparked off deadly protests a week ago.

    The casualties appeared to be civilians, said Obaidullah Talwar, a senior police detective for eastern Nangarhar
    province, of which Jalalabad is capital.

    More than 30 people have been killed in the violence, including four US soldiers, in the violence following the burning of copies of the Quran in an incinerator pit at Bagram base north of Kabul.

    On Sunday, seven US soldiers were wounded in a grenade attack on their base in northern Kunduz province, police said.

    President Hamid Karzai went on television on Sunday to appeal for calm.

    Karzai "condemned with the strongest words" the treatment of Islam's holy book and said the perpetrators should be punished, but told his countrymen: "Now that we have shown our feelings it is time to be calm and peaceful."

    He said he respected the emotions of Afghans upset by the incident, but urged them not to let "the enemies of Afghanistan misuse their feelings".

    The Taliban have called on Afghans to kill foreign troops in revenge for the incident, and claimed to have been behind the shooting deaths of the two US advisers in the interior ministry in Kabul on Saturday.

    "said Obaidullah Talwar, a senior police detective"

    why would I trust the words of an apostate working for Satan ?






    That's what I thought, the "civilians" were actually employees of the MILITARY airport working with the policemen and the soldiers, giving them informations so they were apostates too.

    There are NO CIVILIANS in a NATO MILITARY airport.

        The same reason why I wouldnt trust you, a servant of Saudi Wahhabist doctrine who perverts and corrupts Islam into something tyrannical and oppressive.


        Also ...the bombing happened at an airport that serves BOTH civilians and military


        Nato said it had no reports of international forces being among the casualties in Jalalabad.



        The airport serves both civilian and international military aircraft. Witnesses reported seeing at least four destroyed cars at the gates.
        Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid said in an email to media: "This attack is revenge against those soldiers who burned our Koran.''
        President Hamid Karzai has appealed for calm amid anger at the incident at Bagram air base near Kabul.
        In his televised address on Sunday, Mr Karzai "condemned with the strongest words" the treatment of the Korans but added: "Now that we have shown our feelings it is time to be calm and peaceful."

                cowards..

                Typically american coward statement,when ever i see a nice destruction of an american or nato terrorist armoured vehicle,they say how coward this and that,but when i ask them about Drones and tomahawk missile they shut up.

                You should follow their example and just shut up with your crap.

                  Your point maybe valid if I was defending NATO

                  other than that it is typical cowardly Paki Slave who is scared to face reality.

                  Take your retarded sounding imaginary stories of imaginary victories and stick them back up your Pakistani Master's holes

                      Excuse me? Very offensive. At least respect 28 Million Pashtuns on this side of the border who have accepted Pakistan as their homeland.

                      This is no way to talk about my country. Why haven't the mods deleted this post?

                      As far as the bombing is concerned its a sad event that should be condemned on every level. Here we see people defending it. Amazing!

                      If you guys are fighting NATO why does every attack end up killing innocent Afghans or Pakistanis. The insurgency is just an excuse to massacre innocent locals.
