New High Score reached!

quote:

At least 100 people, 80 of them children, have been killed in a Taliban assault on an army-run school in Peshawar, Pakistani officials say.

Five or six militants wearing security uniforms entered the school, officials said. Gunfire and explosions were heard as security forces surrounded the area.

The army says most of the school's 500 students have been evacuated. It is not clear how many are being held hostage.

A Taliban spokesman says the assault is in response to army operations.

Hundreds of Taliban fighters are thought to have died in a recent military offensive in North Waziristan and the nearby Khyber area.

I bet they brought a proper flag, too. It's a good thing the US beat the Taliban, this could've been much worse.

Mohammed married a nine year old, he didn't kill them. Pretty sure these guys are NOT following the true message of Islam.

these guys still got a way to go to catch up with Dagestan and Chechnya on the kid killing front

if there was a kid murdering draft the Pakistani Taliban is an early 2nd round pick, easy, you'd be dumb to let them fall further than that. they add some real intangibles to your team

For people who hate America they sure do like to act like us when it comes to killing brown people.

Actually maybe we could use that common bond to befriend them. Let's be pals with the Taliban.
