Kandahar Mayor Killed in Suicide Bombing

Just like in Iraq when control was handed over to the Iraqis, the Militants picked up the pace of terror.

Same thing in Afghanistan, they are being handed control and the Taliban and other "Militants" are elevating the Violence.

Islam the Religion of Suicide Bombers.

Afghan officials say a suicide bomb attack has killed the mayor of the southern city of Kandahar.

Officials say Mayor Ghulam Haider Hamidi died Wednesday when a suicide bomber blew himself up near Hamidi's office. Officials said the explosives were hidden in the bomber's turban.

The mayor's death comes just two weeks after Afghan President Hamid Karzai's half brother was assassinated at his home in Kandahar city.

Violence in the country has increased as Afghans begin taking security control from U.S. and NATO-led forces.
