ruthless
shameless
bigoted
brainless
remorseless
hate mongers
Takfiri Idealists
shame for humanity
shame for Muslims
shame for Pakistan

so they compare very well and at part with TTP

Does ahmad people worship in temple or church? Are the terrorists sunni attackers on shia minority??

 

[sparklingway]

Police is asking clearly on loudspeakers that people go back to their houses or go inside the mosque.

******* idiots are standing recording videos from their cellphones.

Ahmadis call themselves muslims, but the others call them non muslim. they also call their worship place as mosque. but whatever they are, muslim or non muslim, attacking them is nothing but a crime and un islamic act. the taliban have always been Sunnis, shias dont havve taliban.
