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.

A suicide bomber blew himself up in a hospital in northwest Pakistan, killing at least 23 people.

PESHAWAR, Pakistan (AFP) — A suicide bomber killed 23 people at a hospital in northwest Pakistan Tuesday, highlighting the militant challenge facing the government after the resignation of Pervez Musharraf.

In other violence in the wake of the US-backed president’s decision to bow out on Monday, five soldiers and 13 Taliban militants were killed in a tribal region bordering Afghanistan.

The suicide attack happened as Shiite Muslims gathered to protest over the death of a man in a suspected sectarian attack in the troubled town of Dera Ismail Khan, said North West Frontier Province police chief Malik Naveed Khan.

“There are 23 confirmed dead and up to 20 wounded. We have found the legs of the suspected suicide bomber,” Khan told private Geo television, adding that tensions were high in the area after the blast.
