context: WTF is wrong with these people?? Didn't Taliban regain control of the country by force?? Why is this still happening?? Does everyone in that God forsaken hell hole have a fetish for blowing up themselves and everyone around them to smithereens?? >
  
  The Taliban was never the only militant group operating in Afghanistan, even with the US and its allies present. Other militant factions have always been around, such as the western-aligned Northern Alliance and ISIS-K. Assuming these groups are friendly toward one another just because they share a religion or ethnicity is nowhere near correct.
  The Taliban is in control of Afghanistan, sure, but they have been fighting against ISIS-K for years now. Without the ability to maintain national security as well as the Afghan government was (which is saying a lot), shit like this will still happen as ISIS-K tries to take control of regions in Afghanistan from the Taliban. >
  
  Hopefully the Taliban at least learns now why blowing up civilians is not cool, now that they are on receiving end >
  
  IS-Khorasan has been busy. Because the Taliban isn't extreme enough.
