Enemies of Pakistan and the current government are poisoning Pakistan from the inside. could be indians, black water or Zardari (so the money keeps coming in). there were no attacks in pakistan before pakistan started the so called war on terror. im not taking sides with anyone, i love pakistan and i love pakistani people. Its a shame that so many people are dying in our beautiful country. Also dont forget that these same Taliban where trained by the CIA when they were fighting against the soviats. support PTI and all this might stop and if you dont want any future for your kids then please vote for PPP..

This is exactly what imran khan said, there is no law and order in Pakistan. Is this a backlash for supporting the war in Afghanistan. So many lost there lives today, what are the attackers trying to prove? May Allah swt help Pakistan and its people.

It is time the Fatwa monger clergy listen to the wails of hapless innocent citizens and reel out Fatwa against dastardly acts of cruelty against the fellow humans and fellow citizens. Holy Koran never permits killing human beings under any pretax except againt enemies of the state. A time has come we read the original tenants of Islam and stop following the Fatwas that seems to be misinterpreted by vested interests. Please spare the innonets in the name of Allah Chawla

Hostages in Bajaur, miners in Baluchistan and police in Lahore, don't think, brand them "terrorists" NOW, isn't it ironic that clergy is silent on this matter? what a sad era of hypocrisy we are going thru.

Where is my Pakistani ghairat now? Is DPC going to protest their death, or put a dharna in Khyber Agency against these barbarians?

Pretty cowardly killing coal miners, sleeping policemen and innocent hostages on buses..
These people are not heroes, they are bandits. No more British to kill so you can admire them?
They are obviously the savage innocents -the noble savages - Allah's finest creation.
Farmers who work so hard all their lives must be terrified of these people (if you can call them people).
