Afghan Death Devils

Submitted by ub on

13 members of the US military and dozens of innocent civilians were killed near the outskirts of Kabul Airport after being targeted.

ISIS has claimed responsibility, but it is important for Americans to be in guard against the devil we know as well as the devil we don’t know. We do know that American government officials gave the Taliban a list of names of U.S. citizens, green card holders as well as Afghan allies who were to be granted entry into outer perimeters of the city’s airport, thereby raising many questions about the security breach and prompting outrage from military officials.

A regional affiliate of the Islamic State struck at the heart of Kabul, setting off an explosion outside Hamid Karzai International Airport and another at the nearby Baron Hotel. These brazen acts of terrorism killed dozens of Afghan civilians and at least 13 American service members.

Isis-K - or the Islamic State Khorasan Province ISKP- is the regional affiliate of Isis also-called Islamic State that is active in Afghanistan and Pakistan.
