Hitting soft targets again, the cowards

How hard is it to walk into a crowd of innocents and pull the pin on your suicide bomb? Not hard enough, apparently, according to an AP on-line article: "A suicide bombing at an outdoor dog fighting competition killed 80 people and wounded scores more Sunday, a governor said, in what appeared to be the deadliest terror attack in Afghanistan since the fall of the Taliban in 2001. Officials said the attack apparently targeted a prominent militia commander who had stood up against the Taliban. He died in the attack... The Taliban often claim responsibility immediately after major attacks against police and army forces — often naming the bombers — but shy away from claiming attacks with high civilian casualties."

Rico says it seems a high price for one guy they could have killed somewhere else...
