Just how inhuman can the murderous zeal of fanatics be?
Here are the essential facts: Two suicide killers, hiding behind burqas, murdered more than 40 people, and injured another 60+, in two explosions minutes apart, at an IDP (internally displaced peoples) refugee camp at Katcha Pakka near Kohat, as they gathered to register for relief goods and as food was being distributed to them.
Yes, you read it right.
They murdered people who have already been made homeless. They killed people gathered to collect food and relief goods. They killed deliberately. They murdered on purpose. This was not an accident or bad planning. They had planned to kill. They had wanted to murder. They planned to kill women and children and innocent civilians.
That is exactly what they wanted to do. That is exactly what they did.
This is neither unique as an incident nor unique in its brutality and inhumanity.
Yesterday, it was a hospital – yes, hospital – that was attacked in Quetta where Muslims were mourning the death of a murdered Shia leader.
The butchers were butchering. Deliberately. Purposefully. Inhumanly.
The blood boils, eyes swell up and humanity cries whenever an innocent soul is killed. No matter why. No matter by whom. No matter how. But when the murder is so callous, so planned, so deliberate, so inhuman, the heart skips a beat, the mind is baffled, and something dies within each one of us. There is nothing more left to say.
What can one say that has not been said before. One seethes in ones anger. One sends out a silent prayer. One wipes off the tears. And one stares into the darkness. Trying desperately, trying senselessly, trying uselessly, to understand why anyone could do such a thing. How anyone could do such a thing.
One stares into the darkness. Knowing full well that no darkness known to man could be darker than the darkness that breeds this murder.
I really think people should ignore provacations from Adnan, etc. No same person, or even half sane can be supporting these killings and he is doing so only because he wants more hits on his blog so he leaves these insane comments at popular blogs like this so that a few people will click back to see who this insane person is. Oldest trick, although it is so sad that he is doing this by celebrating the brutal murders of so many already homeless Muslims. Allah aap ko hidayat dey.
@Adnan
The article you mention claims that an NWFP minister said the “lead heroine” denied the incident, it does not contain anything from the person herself and cannot be taken as a reliable.
There are also many other videos of murder and beating that the Taliban proudly made and distributed. You cannot simply dismiss all those videos that document the crimes of the Taliban either.
@Mera Pakistan
The conspiracy exists only in your mind and is a convenient way for you to deny that Taliban and extremists are butchering Muslims. There is no need for any “Global Capitalist” conspiracy as Islam is neither a threat to them and Muslims are their own worst enemies.
Does anyone have any nmbers of how many Muslims and Pakistanis these Taliban have killed this year and how many have been killed by Americans?
@Adnan:
since when is “live and let live” gunda gardi ???
And I as don’t follow anyone.. neither are USA and India my friends.. if they are my enemies.. so be it.. I’ll fight them.. if they are using Islam and muslims as their weapon.. I’ll have to tackle that as well..
But ultimately its muslims of pakistan, that are enemies of my country.. if they side with external enemies.. thats part of the problem, but sitll a separate issue.. it does not excuse me of cleaning my own house first..
and these enemies won’t stop because its their religion that has as its basic tenet, the obligation to “conquer and spread islam” using violence and intimidation.. its inherent.. how can I then blame outside forces, if all they are doing is HELPING islam conquer our land..
and I frankly know no “peaceful” means of negotiating with the holders of this religion..
I will also digress from calling this religion “islam” .. thats not my business.. u and ur friends can have this discussion by urself..
I am concerned with my freedom .. freedom of thought .. thats not allowed in this religion.. nor was it allowed by ur revered personalities…
oh and my name.. i’m not dependent upon my name.. all of ur revered personalities have had their names kept before Islam.. they are all “kaafir” names.. and so is mine..
” you better behave .. either live and let live.. or stop crying when your friends get bombed..”
@Salman: This ghunda style of yours is not going to help you let alone others and yet you are crying that I am preaching you. Should one redefine hypocrisy?
Irony is, those who called you “my friends” are actually being fed by your masters; I am talking about America and India who have been feeding these guys and using you people as a front-end spokesman to act up like a “darbari”. No, no terrorist is being bombed. If for you women and kids in tribal areas are terrorists then I would see how would you react if someone kill your family kids and women by declaring them terrorists
Nobody is preaching you, You yourself poked in and you gotta get the answer in return. If you can;t face reality then just hide yourself where sun does not shine.
As far as feeling proud of your “brain”,your brain was not “holier” than Einstein and Steven Hawking(ever heard of his name?). Go and read them, despite of being touching the heights of science,both admitted that their brains are not enough to comprehend everything created by the creature of the Universe. And technically you “follow” your brain which usually mislead you one way or other so claiming “I dont follow anyone” is just like living in a delusional state.
BTW, Salman,why did not you change your name from Salman/Solomon to someone else. The Prophet Salman(As) was quite a “Taliban” and used to pray most of the time. He was also a practised Muslim. I will consider you a “man” if you reject to be called as “Salman” and choose some other name otherwise you are just seeking excuses to just throw up loud.
Liberals always run away when somone ask them about the “sources” who feed these Talibans. Adil will not have guts to condemn sources who feed these “Talibans” because Adil and other lefts know very well that those who are feeding Talibans are actually feeding them as well and Liberals don’t have courage to curse India and USA who re spending money via NGOs and these “freelance millitants” to create unrest in Pakistan. So be it Azab MinAllah or Millitants, they are on payroll of US and India
