I post that cause I felt sorry for those men who were murdered. Regardless where they live, that is a tragedy. And that tragedy came right off the heals of another tragedy, the Manchester bombing. Both happen within the same week.

trigger warning: Syria and Libya are NOT in Europe.

Manchester, England (CNN)Manchester suicide bomber Salman Abedi likely received some ISIS training in Syria in the months before the attack, according to information gathered in the preliminary investigation, a US official told CNN on Thursday.
The US believes ISIS, through that training, set the stage for the 22-year old to carry out the deadly attack at the Manchester Arena on Monday night, which killed 22 people as they left a pop concert.
Other members of Abedi's family are believed to have been radicalized as well, the official said.
More details are emerging about the British-born killer, who spent time in Libya before the attack and transited through Istanbul and Dusseldorf airports, as police focus on tracking down his associates.

I know where Egypt is, what I don't know why you have to point that out.

Because this is the "Islam in Europe" thread.

Backing out of this thread was the best decision I'm made this year so far.

That's all very fine and commendable, just don't act all surprised when it's pointed out to you that you're going OT for the thread.

"A massive blast tore through the diplomatic quarter of the Afghan capital Wednesday, killing at least 80 people and wounding more than 350, officials said. The devastation left Kabul in shock and underlined the country’s security struggles as it confronts a sustained wave of insurgent and terrorist attacks."

Islam: 3
World: 2

Dunno if you're aware but there is a thing on Twitter keeping score of all the attacks during Ramadan. It's a bit sad imo, but it's on there.

That depends on how you define Afghanistan.
