A car bomb exploded outside a police station in Kabul on Wednesday morning, killing at least 14 people and wounding more than 140. Taliban insurgents claimed responsibility for the attack.
The explosion occurred after the U.S. and Taliban reported progress in peace talks in Qatar earlier this week, and was the latest in a series of explosions and suicide attacks in Afghanistan.
"Again a Taliban suicide attack in Kabul targets a civilian area that resulted in harming of so many innocents," Sediq Sediqqi, a spokesman for Afghan President Ashraf Ghani, tweeted.
"Indiscriminate attacks and intentional Injury to civilians are never warranted. We condemn the attack today in Kabul for which the Taliban claimed responsibility," U.S. Special Representative Zalmay Khalilzad said in a tweet. "The focus should be on immediately reducing violence as we move closer to intra-Afghan negotiations that will produce a political roadmap and a permanent ceasefire."

Assholes gotta be assholes.
I don't know why we are even negotiating with these sons of bitches. Even if you convince some of them to accept some kind of deal, there will be diehards that keep on doing what they know.
Don't give them a thing.
The Afghan government needs to figure out how to defend themselves.
It is time to go. Well past time.

MSG Stan Hutchison - We don't have to agree on everything to agree on something.
Besides, I think we can file this one under common sense, well informed by history.
