Tragic Loss of Skateistan Youth

www.skateistan.org...

From the source:

"On the morning of Saturday September 8th a suicide attack in Kabul claimed the lives of a number of young Afghans. The bomb was detonated outside of the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) HQ, where many of the street working children of Kabul sell trinkets, scarves and chewing gum to help support their families.

We are very sad to learn that of the six young children confirmed to have passed away, four of them were students, volunteers and youth leaders at Skateistan, who were well-loved and well-known faces for the entire team in Kabul. It is therefore with great pain and heavy hearts that we share our memories of children who were not just victims of senseless violence, but also beautiful human beings who will never be forgotten by their teachers, peers, co-workers, students, friends or family."

A child suicide bomber for the Taliban blows up their version of Dogtown. So, anyone want to put a positive spin on this, try to make it like the Taliban were striking a blow against the Western Invader?

The Taliban get some kid to blow up other kids. Nice alternative they're offering.

Here's an ATS thread about the park from a few years ago.
