| Roadside bomb kills 11 in Badghis |
| 2011-11-09 |
| KABUL: The Afghan Interior Ministry says a roadside bombing in the country’s west has killed 11 people, most of them members of one family. A ministry statement on Tuesday says the bomb went off as a police vehicle was driving by Monday evening in Badghis province’s Qadis district. The vehicle was part of a three-vehicle police convoy that had stopped shortly before to pick up a family that needed a ride into town. The ministry says nine of the 11 killed were from one family, including six children and two women. Two policemen were also killed while three people — a 10-year-old child and two other policemen — were wounded. The ministry condemned what it described as an “un-Islamic” act that killed the civilians during the second day of a major Islamic holiday. |

| #3 IsraelforJews' comment has been dumped. phil_b, yesterday you asked where he was posting from: it's the UK. When he first showed up, it was from Leeds. He was identified as a Moby on the first day, which is pretty pathetic. |

| #2 I4 If you are going to troll, at least use good grammar. 11 fewer terrorists not 11 less terrorists if you can count it use 'fewer' |

| #1 I dunno, killing large numbers of civilians seems to be a key part of most Islamic holidays. |
