A pair of suicide motorcycle attackers have hit a Pakistani Shi’ite mosque in Parachinar, targeting worshipers as well as people in the marketplace around the area. At least 57 people were killed, and many more could die from severe injuries.
The bombings appeared to be coordinated, and were carried out within less than a minute of one another. The powerful explosions damaged 15 nearby shops, mostly preparing to sell food at sunset during Ramadan. The attack occurred just before sunset.
So far there has been no claim of responsibility but several militant factions in Pakistan, notably the Lashkar-e Jhangvi (LeJ) target Shi’ites almost exclusively as part of ongoing violence against the nation’s religious minorities.
Parachinar lies just on the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan, and in the restive Kurram tribal agency. The proximity to Afghanistan means a cross-border attack cannot be ruled out, but with Shi’ites already a target in Pakistan simply for being Shi’ites, this is by no means certain.
These are Saudis Wahhabis and Salafis barbarians acting on behalf of their masters. USA and EU want to control the entire Middle East and militarize the region, thats when and where these barbarians come handy when such idea is based on dividing people. This is 2013, the world is taken back by USA and EU interests into the Stone Age by the idea in "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" such idea by itself is an stone aged.
Blame everyone but the people who did it? They are not Wahhabi or Salafi. LeJ is not a Saudi organization. These folks are Pakistani, an offshoot of SSP. SSP itself was created to fight extremist Shia organizations — Jaish M and Tahreek-e-Jafaria. Let s not blame US or Saudi Arabia for this. Blame those who did it and the government of Pakistan who cannot catch the culprits.
If you look at whole history of Pakistan until 2001, you will not find any suicide attack. The question is why did all suicide bombing start after the war on terror. America has a role in radicalizing Muslims in Pakistan.
