A suspected suicide bomber has struck close to the entrance to the US embassy in Kabul, Afghanistan, witnesses and police say.

It is unclear so far whether there are any casualties.

Reports said the bomber detonated explosives about 200m from the heavily guarded entrance to the US compound.

Security in Afghanistan has become a key concern for foreign troops and officials, as the country faces an increasingly strong Taleban insurgency.

When Obama and Islamic terrorist leaders meet, they wink at each other.

Terrible things rock on no matter who was elected.

Pre-emptive blaming going on.

Sure am glad the world loves us now that Obama’s been selected....

Welllp, it's obvious what we can expect in these next four years.

These guys smell weakness and are now on the march because they know they can get away with it.

So now they can go back home to the warmer weather.

History will show we were complete idiots for focusing on Iraq instead of Afghanistan and Pakistan.

The scary thing about the Somali’s is that they are here legally, thanks to our state department. What will they have learned and what will they be capable of on their return? They will be welcomed back with open arms.
