Suicide attack on Pakistani church kills 75 people

Suicide attack on Pakistani church kills 75 people | NDTV.com

Peshawar: A pair of suicide bombers detonated their explosives outside a historic church in northwestern Pakistan on Sunday, killing 75 people in the deadliest-ever attack on the country's Christian minority, officials said.

A wing of the Pakistani Taliban claimed responsibility for the bombing in the city of Peshawar, saying it would continue to target non-Muslims until the United States stopped drone attacks in the country's remote tribal region.

The latest drone strike came on Sunday, when missiles hit a pair of compounds in the North Waziristan tribal area, killing six suspected militants, Pakistani intelligence officials said.

The attack on the All Saints Church, which also wounded 110 people, underlines the threat posed by the Pakistani Taliban at a time when the government is seeking a peace deal with the militants. It will likely intensify criticism from those who believe that negotiating peace with the Taliban is a mistake.

The attack occurred as hundreds of worshippers were coming out of the church in the city's Kohati Gate district after services to get a free meal of rice offered on the front lawn, said a top government administrator, Sahibzada Anees.

"There were blasts and there was hell for all of us," said Nazir John, who was at the church with at least 400 other worshippers. "When I got my senses back, I found nothing but smoke, dust, blood and screaming people. I saw severed body parts and blood all around."

Would have been true if he said about UK or Europe.

Looks like they indeed were militants.

I think they need more drone attacks.

+1 to that.

They think all Americans are Christians.

They only see Muslims and non-muslims. And all non-Muslims must be persecuted.

still they are being shown as victim, around the world they kill non-beliver of their faith, and still people cry about human rights, injustice to them, the evil is playing game with humans, wait it will grow monstorous and will be out of control

The victim card is played by everyone that is a minority in any country. It has nothing to do with any particular religion.
We must refrain from blaming an entire religion just because of some oddballs with a jacked up notion of right and wrong.

interestingly, zawahiri recently issued some 'guidelines' for their 'employees' (the terrorists) to practice restraint, and not to target/attack hindus (working in middle-eastern countries; as well as not to involve themselves in any confrontation{s} with india), christians, people from other muslim sects, and people in areas like markets, etc., and not to poke their noses unnecessarily in other conflicts (like of syria and egypt), and engage in a conflict only in countries when/where its inevitable (even in america and its proxy-countries), but, instead, to focus more on the other path of 'jihaad', ie, promoting of ideas and by way of this, establish safe bases ('daawa', or missionary-work).
not that it means much/anything.

USA , Pakistan and Saudi Arabia are Axis of evil , promoting and financing terrorism all around the globe .There is no hope for end of terrorism

Religion, has it done any good in our generation?

To be honest, its not religion. It's the people.

Saying that religion does harm is like saying that guns kill people. We all know that guns don't kill, people do. Some prominent religious leader misinterpreted the scripture and that raised a whole bunch of a$$****s who don't have two braincells to rub together.

I mean, how daft do you have to be to believe that if you kill yourself with some "unbelievers" you will get 42 virgins in heaven? The same can be said about the extremists of any religion, all of them are the brainwashed scum of the earth.
