Deaths in Afghanistan convoy blast
Source: al Jazeera

Three civilians and three soldiers serving with Nato-led forces in Afghanistan have been killed in a suicide car bomb attack on a military convoy, officials have said.

The bomber drove an explosives-laden vehicle into a military convoy in the eastern Kapisa province on Tuesday, lieutenant commander Christopher Hall, a Nato spokesman, said.

Three US troops serving with Nato's International Security Assistance Force (Isaf) were killed in the blast in the Sayat district, technical sergeant Chuck Marsh, a US military spokesman, said.

Two other civilians were hurt in the attack, Afghanistan's interior ministry said in a statement.

1. There goes another 21 virgins who were looking for work....
Once again, this shows the gullible stupidity of religious fanatics...to believe that "God is waiting for me to murder some innocent lives so he can reward me for my 'valor'" How insane is that.

This is another sad day for the world when those trying to do good are punished just for being. May this spawn of Satan burn in hell alongside cheney and the rest of the world's criminals against humanity.

More pain and suffering. Bring our young men and women home.

3. One gets virgins, the other gets medals. Both of them are idiots.
