First off, the Taliban could care less about bombing a hospital and killing innocent sick people laying in a hospital bed and secondly, the Taliban lie like you and I breathe in oxygen.
An SUV full of explosives was rammed into a hospital today in Logar province today and the blast killed 30 Afghan civilians...when the Taliban saw the amount of damage and deaths they had caused, well then they were quick to point the finger at someone else...anyone else....like, let's see....hmmm....who else in the country is pulling off this kind of blood letting? No one. This is classic al Qaeda inspired terror and the Taliban have bought in 100 percent to the debauchery of their Arab cousins.
From the article at The Long War Journal:
A suicide bomber killed more than 30 Afghans in a deadly attack on a hospital in the eastern province of Logar today.
The suicide bomber rammed an SUV packed with explosives into a local hospital in the Azra district in Logar just before noon today. Patients and medical personnel were among those killed in the attack. One Afghan official said that more than 35 people were killed.
The Taliban denied it carried out the attack and claimed it was an attempt to "defame" the terror group.
"We condemn this attack on a hospital ... whoever has done this wants to defame the Taliban," spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid.
But the Taliban have carried out suicide attacks and bombings at hospitals, mosques, markets, and other civilian centers. On May 21, the Taliban claimed credit for a suicide attack at a hospital on Kabul that is frequented by military and police personnel. And just yesterday, the Taliban detonated a bomb at a market in Kunduz, killing ten civilians.
The Taliban and the Haqqani Network, a Taliban subgroup close to al Qaeda that is based in the Afghan east, both operate in Logar. They operate jointly as part of the Kabul Attack Network, a unit assigned to carry out attacks in and around the capital. The Kabul Attack Network includes elements from the Hizb-i-Islami Gulbuddin, the Lashkar-e-Taiba, and al Qaeda, and routinely sends out suicide bombers to carry out attacks in the region. Taj Mir Jawad, a senior Taliban commander who co-leaders the Kabul Attack Network, commands forces in the Pul-e Alam district in Logar.
Did I mention that these Taliban that killed Afghans laying in hospital beds are the same Taliban that Barack Hussein Obama wishes to negotiate a lasting peace with in Afghanistan?

The International Security Assistance Force claims the Taliban is responsible 85 percent of civilian casualties in Afghanistan that occurred between January and the end of May of this year. Last year, the United Nations said the Taliban were responsible for 78 percent of civilian deaths.
