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.

Straight white male supremacists. They were probably wearing Gadsden Flag t-shirts.

String a few weeks or months together like that, and Kabul could get to Philly or Chicago levels. Maybe.

There has been infighting among the jihadis, over who will be in charge.

Will Biden take a break from his vacation to take credit for this, or is this on Putin too?

They’ve been killing each other since the 7th century.

“Sunnis vs Shiites?”
I don’t know about this strike, but the Sunnis have been at each other’s throats, to see who ends up on top.
ISIS-K and the Taliban have been shooting it out, and the head of al Queda (Ayman al Zawahiri) may have been sold out as part of the infighting.

This is almost certainly ISIS Khorasan trying to overthrow the Taliban and take over. ISIS has planted other bombs at mosques and assassinated various government officials and more moderate theologians.
