Taliban-Claimed Blast Blow to Bush
KABUL, August 30 (IslamOnline.net & News Agencies)


At least 17 people, including three Americans, were killed in fresh two blasts in Afghanistan Sunday, August 29, a further setback to US President George W. Bush’s presidential campaign.

Bush has sought to win over voters for the November presidential campaigns on claims the situation in Afghanistan and Iraq had moved for better after the US military campaigns that led to the ouster of both regimes. ..

4. I dare say our homeland is in for a ride if Bush wins.
All these other countries that currently hate us but do nothing about it will see it as America certifying all that Bush did. The only reason action isn't taken as of now is that they don't think that all of America approves of Bush's actions. If he wins, that will no longer be true.

8. I agree.
Two blasts in one day killing Americans in one and schoolchildren in the other. :( Another demonstration of Bush's incompetence.

9. The Taliban? Isn`t that who the moron said he defeated?
The court appointed klutz has killed probably close to ten thousand people over there. And the Taliban still thrives. Hope Bu$h and all his rich buddies enjoy all the blood they are shedding because a freaking oil pipeline. And of course we can`t stop poppy Bu$h`s opium from flowing either. Anyone voting for Bu$h is a complete idiot.
Peace
Wildman
