Afghanistan hit by largest bombing since 2001.

“Thirty-five people were killed and 52 injured this morning in a devastating suicide bomb attack on a bus in Kabul. The attack bore immediate comparison to mass casualty suicide bombings in Iraq and appeared to mark a leap in the capability of the Taliban and its Al-Qa’eda mentors in Afghanistan to mount such attacks. The death toll is the largest in a single attack in the country since 2001.”

1. Bush will be calling for another 30,000 soldiers for Afghanistan and
...of course an additional $100 billion following these attacks. Are we ready for that? It will mean voting in a military draft!
