2. A roadside bomb on Friday killed five people including an anti-Taliban tribal leader in Pakistan's Bajaur district, the focus of a military operation to quash insurgents, officials said.

6. The death toll in two bomb blasts at a busy market in the centre of Pakistan's second largest city, Lahore, has risen to 48, police and medics say. More than 400 people have been killed during a string of attacks mounted by Islamist militants in recent weeks.
7.At least eight people have been killed in a suicide bombing in Kabul, the capital of Afghanistan, officials say. The blast happened near a hotel in Wazir Akbar Khan district, home to several aid agencies and embassies.

"Long Live The Taliban."

But surely these acts are not committed by the same people whom our Opposition Parties are so worried about being mistreated or insulted while in Afghani hands.
This story, bombing the sports field, has to be one of the most sickening in a long line of disgusting acts.
Please don't anybody tell me the Taliban are "human beings too and have rights".
Bloody Monsters.
