The Terrorists using everything from IED to Child Suicide Bombers, tried another tactic sending a suicide bomber disguised as a beggar to blow up a compound.
Certainly beggars in the war torn region are unassuming before are as numerous as grains of sand.

Two NATO soldiers killed in attack
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANDAHAR, AFGHANISTAN — Insurgents in eastern Afghanistan killed two NATO soldiers yesterday, while a suicide bomb attack by a fake beggar inside a regional prosecutor’s office killed five people, officials said.
NATO did not disclose the dead soldiers’ nationality or the exact location of the attack. Most of the troops in the east are American.
The suicide bomber penetrated the prosecutor’s office yesterday and detonated explosives killing six people, including a government lawyer.
The attack occurred in Zaranj, capital of the southwestern province of Nimroz, said police Chief Mohammad Ayub Badakhshi.
The bomber entered the compound pretending to be a beggar, said Ghulam Dastagir Azad, the provincial governor.
Elsewhere in Nimroz, Taliban militants attacked a police checkpoint, killing two police officers, Azad said. He said seven Taliban fighters also were killed in the exchange.
