Bombing kills 48 Afghan college hopefuls in Kabul

KABUL, Afghanistan — A bomb tore through a university preparatory academy in Kabul, killing 48 and injuring 67 others, according to the country's Health Ministry.

The attacker targeted the private school in the minority Hazara neighborhood where a group of young men and women were studying for university entrance exams.

The Taliban denied involvement in the attack, and there was no immediate claim of responsibility. Islamic State extremists have in the past targeted Shiite Muslim Hazaras, who they consider apostates.

We should get out of there, and let those muslims blow each other up until there aren't any of them left...
