Sad, but not unexpected. These types of bombings are always really sad to hear about. Might as well be an everyday occurrence, that region is in such a fucked state...

This is how ISIS wages their war. It's how they get people to fear them because as long as you aren't on their side you are their enemy and can be killed anytime using anything they've got. Good thing is their dream of establishing a Caliphate in Syria are fading.

I think the fact that they rely on suicide attacks is sort of an off-putting tactic in the minds of new recruits. You hear all these crazy stories of these westerners out of their minds joining ISIS because they see it as some adventure, only to be used as sex slaves/suicide bombers. Horrible stuff, and the recruitment drive they have makes you wonder why they even exist in the first place.

In fact there are some I suppose who join ISIS because they want to blow themselves up.
