the scene of the destruction of Indian embassy

According to the Associated Press,the Indian Embassy was a target in a fresh attack that took place in the capital, Kabul this morning by a suicide bomber.A short while later the Taliban claimed resposibility for the attack.

On the other hand (as was expected) Pakistan was blamed for this ,this time by the Afghan Foreign Ministry.

The Indian Foreign Secretary has declared that a man driving a sports car was loaded with explosives.He drove to the outer perimeter of the boundary wall of the Indian Embassy and the explosion injured three of the para military guards guarding the embassy.

Pakistan's Foreign Ministry spokesman has strongly condemmed the act of violence and has denied Pakistan's involvement, calling the blaming by Afghanistan as 'perposterous!'

They keep on and on and on pointing fingers at Pakistan for their own security lapses. How is this a 'Pakistani plot' and what does Pakistan have to gain in this situation? It is this kind of accusation that increases the fiery rhetoric over here and makes people anti- the world.

You're right Changez.Thanks for your comments.I wonder why didn't Afghanistan first look for clues before blaming Pakistan!It's the same story wheneverIndia is made the target of a terrorist attack.
