A huge explosion struck a mosque in Kabul during evening prayers on Wednesday, witnesses and police said, with many feared dead or injured.
Police said there were multiple casualties but did not say how many. One Taliban intelligence official told Reuters that as many as 35 people may have been wounded or killed, and the toll could rise further. Al Jazeera quoted an unidentified official as giving a death toll of 20.

Yep. The instant there is no longer a common enemy the 10,000 tribal sects turn on each other.

It’s simple - Al Queda in Afghanistan is upset that that their Taliban friends did not protect the Al Queda leader killed recently by U.S. drone attack in Kaubul. One Islamist group against another Islamist group. Pray to “Allah” they continue to go after each other until they deciemate each other. Maybe enough more sane Afghans would be left over.

Unfortunately, about 75,000 of them got on the last flights out of Kabul last year. We haven’t a clue as to how many of them are terrorists since Xiden’s chaotic exit included damn near zero vetting.

Like they're an official government or something. How are they less legitimate than the regimes in Peking, Moscow, or Washington?

"One Taliban intelligence official told Reuters"
Doesn't something seem wrong with this statement?
