Soldiers of the Caliphate (Sunnis) Blow Up Polytheists (Shi’a) in Bangladesh
ISIS, ISIS everywhere. NYTimes:
DHAKA — Three bombs exploded early Saturday morning during a giant procession in the Bangladesh capital honoring the Shia Muslim holiday of Ashura, killing at least one person, wounding dozens more, and further fraying nerves in a city already on edge over reports of extremist threats.
A suspected Islamic State account issued a statement online claiming responsibility for the bombing, according to the SITE Intelligence Group, which monitors extremist messages and propaganda.
The statement said “soldiers of the Caliphate in Bangladesh” were able to detonate explosives in a temple of “polytheists in the city of Dhaka, during the holding of their polytheist rituals.”
It was the third act of violence in Bangladesh that an Islamic State account has claimed in the last month, after the murders of two foreigners, an Italian man and a Japanese man.
The same thing happened in Pakistan yesterday.
