why the fcuk not call them what they are.. terrorists...?
India had only one Nathoo Ram Godse, in Pakistan we have thousands and admired by TV anchors, Urdu press columnists, lawyers, retired High Court Judges etc. Who cares if rest of the world thinks that Islam is an intolerant and blood thirsty religion and Pakistan economy is going down the drain due to abysmal Law & order situation created by these terrorists. These people are doing Allah's work by killing the apostate Shias and other infidels; attacking GHQ, PNS Mehran & PAF Kamra, female students and the 50,000 or so US drone supporting Pakistanis.
Taliban and their allies are 'Not enemies' of PTI. Jamaat Islami Ameer Munawwar Hassan calls them his friends; there are quite a few members of this forum who have soft spot for these 'Mujahids' of Islam.
Dare we call them what they really are! Perish the thought.
Here is another one of there attack which thankfully did not succeed.

Ominous message: SHC judge attacked
THE targeting of Justice Maqbool Baqars convoy in Karachi on Wednesday morning is a clear message from religious militants that even a high court judge with a significant security detail is within their reach. The incident is probably the first of its kind where such a high-ranking jurist has been targeted. While the fact that the Sindh High Court judge survived the attack was nothing short of a miracle, a number of people mostly policemen and Rangers in his entourage died in the bomb attack that left no doubt of its intensity. Surely, the number of fatalities could have been reduced if the unfortunate men had been equipped with protective gear. Claiming responsibility for the bombing, the Pakistani Taliban have said Justice Baqar, a member of the Shia community, was targeted due to his anti-Taliban and anti-Mujahideen decisions. The judge was also believed to be on Lashkar-i-Jhangvis hit list while a TTP suspect arrested in Karachi last year told police that Maqbool Baqar was among his intended targets. The jurist had served as the administrative judge of the anti-terrorism courts in Karachi and initially heard terrorism cases in this capacity.
When a judge of the seniority and stature of Justice Baqar can so easily be targeted, how can we expect judges from lower courts to move actively on cases to convict terrorism suspects? In the aftermath of the attack, perhaps it will not be surprising if lower court judges refuse to hear terrorism cases. That is why, as this newspaper has frequently pointed out, a proper system is required to protect judges, lawyers and witnesses involved in anti-terrorism cases. The intimidation and threats these individuals face plays a major part in keeping the conviction rate low. Unless this changes, we cannot expect progress when it comes to convicting militants. While senior judges do have adequate security, as in Justice Baqars case, the security arrangements for ATC judges and prosecutors are insufficient, which means those on the front line of the legal battle against militancy are exposed to considerable danger. It is hoped Wednesdays incident will trigger a rethink in the way terrorism cases are heard and conducted in Pakistan.
And while reform is needed where the security of individuals associated with anti-terrorism cases is concerned, the larger issue is that of addressing the menace of sectarian and ****** militancy. The fact remains that until the ****** infrastructure is dismantled by the security and intelligence apparatus, judges, lawmakers, government officials, security personnel and common citizens will continue to be open, soft targets for militants.
