At least 800 people have been killed and thousands injured after a 6.0 magnitude earthquake struck eastern Afghanistan Sunday. The epicenter was about 17 miles from Jalalabad near the Pakistan border, at a shallow depth of 5 miles, resulting in stronger ground shaking. Officials expect the death toll to increase as search and rescue efforts proceed in the remote mountainous region.

With the lack of intrastructure, poor construction, toads or access and basic Emergency services it will only get worse just as the article points out.

While I have sympathy for those who lost loved ones, it's hard to care about a people who care nothing about a people who've squandered freedom for a theocracy. Afghans deserve better than the hell they let back in control.
