#2 of course as the Prez and VP will tell you, the Taliban have nothing to do with Islam (ditto ISIS, al Queda, Boko Harem, Al Shabab, etc.)

#10 The only thing missing is the liberal media attributing this atrocity to right wing extremists.

#11 Here it is Jews and hairdressers and I wondered if you were joking. But the part about incluing America because of concern of being moderated was real.

(grom, curious about the joke, if appropriate)

I could give 2shts what the official The Toilet People tagline is, it in no way matches any action like this.

A drunk arrested for running down the street shouting "Death to Jews & bicycle riders!", is asked "Why bicycle riders?".

#27 Militant siege of Peshawar school ends, 141 killed

[Dawn] At least 141 people, most of them children (132), died when Taliban gunmen attacked the school in the morning, 113 people were injured. The overwhelming majority of the victims were students at the school, which has children and teenagers in grades 1-10. All six Taliban attackers were killed.

According to a tweet by DG ISPR Maj-Gen Asim Bajwa, Pakistan’s military on actionable intelligence has carried out several raids including 10 airstrikes in Khyber Agency today.

Condemnations poured in from across the globe including all major political leaders and notables in the country. Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and Army Chief General Raheel Sharif also condemned the assault and rushed to Peshawar to show their support for the victims and the troops partaking in the operation to clear the school of terrorists.

Three-day mourning was also announced by the federal government.

As darkness fell on the area, officials said they had cleared the school of militants. “The operation is completed,” said Bilal Ahmad Faizi, the head of the state-run rescue organisation, speaking to reporters after leaving the school area.

#29 At least they didn't waterboard any of the children. That would be a crime.

Anyone feel like negotiating with these guys?
