Afghanistan: Islamic jihadists murder 3 in jihad attack on EU police convoy

May 17, 2015 7:33 am By Robert Spencer

Afghanistan attackWhat? Why? Were the EU police drawing Muhammad cartoons? They must have provoked the poor dears of the Taliban somehow, no? Time to ramp up the “dialogue” with the Taliban! That will fix this up in a jiffy!

“Taliban attack on EU police vehicle kills three in Kabul,” by Shah Marai, AFP, May 17, 2015:

Three people including a foreigner working with the European Union police were killed Sunday when a Taliban attacker rammed his explosives-laden car into a foreign convoy in Kabul, the latest attack of Afghanistan’s fighting season.

At least 18 people were wounded in the attack, which comes three days after 14 people — mostly foreigners — were killed in a Taliban assault on a Kabul guest house that trapped dozens attending a concert.

The suicide bomber targeted the foreign convoy, which included two vehicles of the European Union Police Mission in Afghanistan (EUPOL), during the Sunday morning rush hour near Kabul airport.

“A suicide bomber detonated his Toyota sedan targeting a foreign forces convoy near Kabul airport today at 9:00 am,” Kabul police spokesman Ebadullah Karimi told AFP.

“The target of the attacker was the foreign forces convoy. So far we have two women dead, 18 others wounded, all of them civilians,” he said, adding that three children were among those wounded.

A foreigner working with EUPOL was also killed, a spokesman for the unit told AFP without specifying his nationality….

    ” … a Taliban attacker rammed his explosives-laden car into a foreign convoy in Kabul, the latest attack of Afghanistan’s fighting season.”

    Afghanistan has a fighting **season** ? Is it sort of like the glorious Twelfth ? Do they get fined if they murder anyone *out* of season ?

      Yes, it does. In the local language it’s called “jihad season”. It lasts from January 1st to December 31st.

        Did they not mistake their target? It’s the EU that helps all of them ‘flee’ into the West! They could have waited for a UN vehicle … or no, the UN also supports them. Oh dear, how difficult: whom do we target?

    I guess the next logical step then is…

    To sue Toyota.

      Don’t give muslim brotherhood affiliated and Hamas linked CAIR anymore ideas. They will sue Toyota for being islamophobic and for not making the truck more resistant to suicide bombs, or infidel return fire. CAIR will also demand Toyota hire a CAIR or muslim brotherhood affiliated VP to help oversee Toyota’s operations, and to make sure all Toyota vehicles are halal approved. Kind of like how the Soviets had party officials oversee even the actions of military officers and report back to the party. I think we already have that now in our government, CAIR and muslim brotherhood people seem to be everywhere.

    Dear Militant Islamist, I’m glad you’ve made it to your 2nd year. Some of us on this site have completed our various doctors’ degrees, so a touch of respect would not come amiss. Most of us agree with you anyway, but we use different words …

      ”Most of us agree with you anyway, but we use different words …”

      Speak for yourself. *I* don’t agree with his repulsive ‘White Supremacist’ rants.

      In any case, this twat isn’t being serious; he just wants to wind everyone up and make the thread all about him – he’s being deliberately provocative in order to gain attention. Mummy and Daddy obviously didn’t pay him enough attention when he was little, so he’s trying to get it now.

      From his silly rant:

      ”6) Set the primarily-genetically-and-racially-determined blessing of having a satisfactorily high IQ of, let’s say, 130 as a prerequisite for citizens to voting and, as a matter of course, bar citizenized non-White convicts and long-term unemployed bums from voting.”

      Talk about shooting yourself in the foot ! He’s disqualified himself right there …

      Lia , I don’t agree at all with you concerning your assumption that most of us here on J.W. would agree with Militant Islamrealist . He is A NAZI , A RACIST BIGOT . He has been DELETED FOR VERY GOOD REASONS . And I am fully behind Mirren 10 .

    What is an EU vehicle doing in Afghanistan?

    • Mirren10 says

      May 18, 2015 at 7:08 am

      Very good question, logdon.

      ”The suicide bomber targeted the foreign convoy, which included two vehicles of the European Union Police Mission in Afghanistan (EUPOL),”

      Are they there to arrest the Taliban ? 🙂
