“Kabul bombing: Triple suicide bombing leaves at least 12 dead at funeral of protester ‘killed by police,'” by Lizzie Dearden, Independent, June 3, 2017:
At least 12 people have reportedly been killed and 90 wounded in bombings at the funeral of a protester killed in Kabul.
Three blasts hit mourners at a cemetery in the Khair Khana district, where photos showed bodies and remains strewn on the ground as smoke filled the air.
The office of President Ashraf Ghani said he condemned “the outrageous attack on mourners burying the martyred”, adding: “The country is under attack. We must be strong and united.”
Abdullah Abdullah, the chief executive of Afghanistan, was one of several politicians who survived the blasts as they gathered for the funeral of Salim Ezadyar, the son of a senior Afghan senator.

After this many long lost years of failure in Afghanistan it’s worth pausing to consider how this lack of achievement compares with that of the Soviet Union during it’s several years of occupation. While the Cold War period is pretty well impossible to compare with the Post Cold War World it’s confronting to see a Trump administration stuck, like it’s predecessors, in Afghanistan without an exit strategy helping to bleed the treasury dry.
