Taliban Attack on Afghan Bank Kills 40
February 20, 2011 Afghan officials say a suicide attack on a Jalalabad bank has killed at least 40 people and wounded 73 others. Hospital officials increased the death toll on Sunday. On Saturday, seven militants dressed in security uniforms and armed with guns and suicide vests stormed a branch of Kabul Bank. Authorities say some of the attackers detonated their vests while others opened fire. Security forces fought the attackers for several hours. The bank handles salaries for the Afghan police and military. Officials say the casualties included civilians as well as security personnel who were collecting their wages. The Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack. |

Re: Taliban Attack on Afghan Bank Kills 40
Really brave bunch of guys, shooting unarmed civilians. You're certainly going to do a great job of promoting your ignorant, regressive philosophy to the population that way.
