| RoP Kills More Muslims |
| 2009-06-05 |
| We get condemned for killing Muslims - but the kind of Muslims we are killing are just the evil and crazy ones who are doing this kind of thing. A Taliban suicide bomber killed more than 40 Pakistanis during an attack at a mosque in the district of Dir in the insurgency-infested Northwest Frontier Province. The suicide bomber entered the mosque compound in the remote village of Hayagai Sharqai and attempted to detonate his explosive vest in the middle of a crowd of worshipers attending Friday prayers. The small mosque was leveled in the attack, and Pakistani officials believe the death toll will rise. "We fear the death toll may rise to 45 because people are still trapped under the debris. Rescue work is under way and there are body parts scattered in the courtyard of the mosque," Atifur Rehman, the senior government officer in Upper Dir told AFP. More than 70 people were wounded in the bombing. |

| #3 "The suicide bomber entered the mosque compound in the remote village of Hayagai Sharqai and attempted to detonate his explosive vest in the middle of a crowd of worshipers attending Friday prayers. The small mosque was leveled in the attack..." Attempted? As in the author of the article attempted to outdo the English in his use of understatement? |

| #1 Thoughts: The word infested sounds so right in context here. I seem to recall after 9-11, some muzz leading light claimed that "there are no innocents" in the West, and all Americans were / are legitimate targets. Seems they (muzz) don't dig that shoe so much when it's on the other foot. Quel surprise. While I feel for any / all innocents who die when a splodeydope goes boom, I wonder how frequently some of the "victims" were go-along-get-along types who, ya know, might have contributed cash-guns-sons to the tabibholes and handed out sweets on more than one festive occasion where "some infidels" got killed. Just sayin'... |
