The Taliban claimed responsibility in the killing of 40 people, most being children. Students may have inadvertently helped the bomber:
Last Sunday a suicide bomber drove up to the village school, which was being used as a polling station for a local by-election, and blew himself up.
Rokhan Gul, a pupil at the school, witnessed the attack. “I saw the bomber just before the blast,” he said.
“While taking a sharp curve at the corner of the street his car slipped into a culvert and all of us helped push him out of the hole. Just 10 minutes later I heard a huge explosion and I immediately knew he was the bomber.”
The Taliban claimed responsibility for the killing. The following day Shah Durran, a Taliban commander in the neighbouring district of Swat, announced on his banned radio station: “We will even kill your children.” (Source: TimesOnline)
Sadly, what so many Westerners fail to realize is that the Taliban are true adherents to Islam. Any Muslim less is ignorant, a liar, or an Apostate. If there were truly any “moderate” Muslims, don’t you think they’d be outraged by this? Don’t you think the intentional killing of children would be condemned?
I guess all those “moderate” Muslims are too busy protesting Israel.
