Hundreds of children are already reported dead with the number expected to get much higher as they say as many as 700 children may have been in the school. The news here is reporting that 6 suicide bombers scaled a wall to the school and started shooting. There are no negotiations as the bombers are not making any demands, they just want to kill as many children as possible. The Pakistani Taliban have already claimed responsibility. Peshawar is a place my family has some history in as some of my ancestors were born there during the British colonial times and although I've never been I feel some sort of connection to this city. http://edition.cnn.com/2014/12/16/world/asia/pakistan-peshawar-school-attack/index.html?hpt=hp_t1
Makes sense if you want to keep people from learning to read so they'll never know what your telling them is a lie.
Happens here too...We have crazy folks trying to change the school boards to change the textbooks.......... Easier to control people if they are dumb.
So sad. I wouldn't want to see anything like that. Head will be f'ed up forever! Sent from my LG-LS720 using Tapatalk
That country is so fucked up...They support the Taliban financially while complaining for billions from us taxpayers to support their fight against the Taliban...What a scam.
This is their MO, apparently not the 1st time and their justification is this is a school run by the military so it's ok as they are infidels too. I saw on the news here that all 6 bombers are dead but no idea about the death toll yet.
Horrific acts of monsters. Now we see if Pakistan will nut up and take out these brutal murdering thugs, or continue to placate them. And it's not just Pakistan, many countries around the world make minimum effort, for fear of these types of retaliation. These animals do not want to share the planet, there is no middle ground, there is no negotiating, there is no peaceful solution.
I agree it is cowardly. It is vile and disgusting. But in my view it is just as disgusting when America drops a million tons of pounds of bombs on countries all over the region. It is also vile when we use tipped uranium in tank shells that has lead to higher cancer rates in Fallujah then in Hiroshima. As an American to me, it makes sense to focus on our crimes and not go about criticizing the crimes of others while overlooking our own. Lest we forget the Taliban were essentially created by the United States in the 1980s. Let us also not forget that the US heavily supports and is allied with Saudi Arabia. In Saudi Arabia roughly 100 people are beheaded each year in public squares. Usually the cases involve young girls being beheaded for resisting the prearranged marriage and their subsequent rape by old men. In fact the US supports at least half-dozen dictators in the region right now and of course past favorites like Sadaam Hussein, the shah, General Pinicohet, etc, etc, etc. Lets put more focus on the horrible terroristic crimes our country commits. When we solve those then we can turn to the filth that is the Taliban. First lets clean the filth up here.
an army public school!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Shit is about to get real (maybe). (Taken from another forum) Pakistan Army recently had a military operation against talibans called "Zarb-e-Azab" in which they killed a good number of taliban militants. So this was taliban's retaliation by killing innocent children in a school which is a school for children of military personnel and public as well.
No, let's not bring up other issues to deflect away from the horrific act that was just committed. Let's not shame ourselves for other things that have nothing to do with what happened in Pakistan today. How about you just shut the fuck up. 130 fucking kids were killed today by a bunch of fucking pieces of shit, it has nothing at all to do with previous actions taken by the U.S. Take your fucking guitar and shove it up your ass sideways you fucking moron. You want to make a thread about actions perpetrated by the U.S., go right ahead but don't take away from the terrorist action that happened today.
I would suggest you get your reading comprehension checked. I didn’t detract anything. I am merely stating that this is a horrible event but as Americans I would like us to focus on our crimes, which are far greater and far worse and far more pervasive. There are millions of people right now trapped under the boot of our supported/created dictatorships. There are young girls being raped in those countries. There are people starving to death in those countries. I could go on and on. There is no qualifying how horrible the actions are of the Taliban today. Yet there is no qualifying how horrible our actions are. Like kids with arms growing out of their heads. This isn’t ancient history buddy. I believe the definition of a hypocrite is a person who looks at other peoples actions while ignoring their own. When Americans do this it is worse cause we actually have an ability to influence our government. You criticizing the Taliban has zero moral value. Why? Cause you cant do anything about it. By ignoring Americas crimes you merely obviate them That’s my only point.
Moronic. I just cited numerous American atrocities. ...christianty, judaism, Islam all have monsters in them. To conclude anything else is simply idiotic.
