Karachi bus attacks leaves 47 Ismailis dead, 24 injured

[Psychic]

Communities like Ismaelis, Hazaras etc should avoid travelling in a single bus. This is not first incident of it's type. People should have learnt lessons from previous attacks. A community which is target of terror organizations, it's members travelling in a single bus is just like a bus with a big bullseye painted on it.

MA Jinnah was born agha khani than converted to khoja shia

khoja and agha khani = one and the same thing.

Are Ismailis shia?

Yes

 

[Shamain]

another attack on shias to increase sectarian rift,

but who gave the attackers info abt this bus only carrying shias.

Very tragic incident.

Just a question though...

How can 8 armed men stop a Hino bus in the middle of the road on a busy Chowk (I presume) and then calmly go over killing 50 people by shooting them in the head with 9mm pistols?

Is every sort of law enforement dead? No passerby spotted this happening?

Plus how they escaped after doing that. Karachi is a heavy traffic city afterall with heavy presence of rangers.

Very immature to blame anyone (except the usual suspects TTP and incompetent police) for this tragic incident. This has to be investigated on various lines which in my opinion should include

• International butt hurt from recent developments, including scheduled visit of a cricketing nation after a very long time, Afghanistan peace process and recent visits, economic corridor, another try at destabilization through sectarian violence
• Political terrorists and their ambitions to control Karachi and show of a finger to LEA trying to prove no matter what you do we will keep killing and frustrating people and playing victim
• Mafias not interested to see Karachi become a city under control of law and order
• Safoora Goth is I believe where these Afghanis are found mostly
• Little success in tracking the sleeping cells of TTP
• Incompetent police failing time and time again
• Zardari's second term is making Sindh especially Karachi a hell etc

Solution should be thorough clean up, dissolve this incompetent provincial government and start the process of cleansing soon before another attack, and if you cannot do it let everyone carry weapons enough of this any tom dick and harry murdering innocent unarmed civilians.

Bloody hell... They used 9mm to kill... For so long no one even tried to stop them...? There is a separate police for Highways in Pakistan, right..?

Looking at the comments of some people here, it seems burden of this will also fall on MQM. Even though TTP has claimed this.

This is Pakistan.

Terrorists and the Anti-Terrorists are one and the same when it comes to Pak. Many times it has been proved.

The Saudi puppet state agencies should stop killing shias. 26 agencies behnd one shia in pak. LOL! it is too much.

RIP for victims.

TTP also claimed shooting down a heli a couple of days ago. They are fckng liars and bastards by the way.

Good blame others.

These are Sunni terrorist killing Shia.

so, if these are sunni terrorist, then all the sunnis were killed by Shia's??

 

[Areesh]

TTP also claimed shooting down a heli a couple of days ago. They are fckng liars and bastards by the way.

But this one is definitely TTP. There is no doubt about that. The modus operandi of this incident clearly shows that it is TTP scums that are behind this attack. No need to pin every other thing on MQM.

They are our Brothers... Bihari-Muhazir bhai bhai...

On Serious note : Was just pointing out the fallacy in arguments of the people blaming MQM. Any such stunt by MQM ( which is already struggling due to operation ) will be suicidal.

Who would risk their lives confronting armed assailants? But yes, if there were armed police on duty then it is a failure.
