Every eye cries

Published December 22, 2014

THE attack on the school in Peshawar is an attack on humanity which cannot be forgiven or forgotten. It has shaken the world and condemnation messages are pouring in from all around the globe.

I urge the government, our security agencies and armed forces to see in every eye the anger against the terrorists who committed this brutal attack on children, and read what the nation wants them to do now. Every citizen demands that you wipe out all terrorists and save our country from this cancer.

The entire world prays for the children and school staff, and those who lost their lives in this attack. May God give their families the strength to bear this unbearable loss, and courage to stand against terrorists.
