KABUL (Reuters) - A suicide bomber attacked a Shi’ite mosque in eastern Afghanistan during Friday prayers, killing 25 people and wounding 40, police said.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack, but police said at least two men had entered the mosque in the city of Gardez in the province of Paktia where about 60 people were praying.

The blast hit the Khawaja Hassan mosque.

“Emergency teams have collected 25 bodies from the mosque premises and 40 people have been rushed to hospital,” said Abdullah Hazrat, a senior government official who was at the blast site.

One witness told Reuters that Shi’ite Muslims, a minority in Sunni-majority Afghanistan, were praying when one man detonated his explosives. A second attacker is reported to have opened fire as worshippers gathered.

Most people think Muslims are obsessed with murdering Christians and Jews. But, Muslims kill Muslims all the time. In fact, Muslims kill 10 other Muslims for every 1 so called Infidel they kill. They just like to kill. Allah tells them to kill, and they don't much care who it is. In the world of Islam, as long as they are killing someone, all is right with their world.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

The above sounds like ISIS.

Taliban hit a bunch of schools in Pakistan as well.

Not that I agree necessarily with the terminology but in researching all of this, one does hear about the "Good Taliban vs. the Bad Taliban":  https://www.csmonitor.com/World/Asia-South-Central/2014/1109/Good-Taliban-and-Bad-Taliban.-New-dynamic-inside-Pakistan

So, apparently we are negotiating with the Taliban and it just might bring about some sort of a peace.
