Pakistan Spy Agency Bombed

Pakistan's main spy agency, which oversees counterterrorism in the border regions of Afghanistan, was bombed Friday. An Associated Press reporter on the scene says there were at least eight wounded or dead. The blast knocked down most of the building, which is located in the northwestern city of Peshawar. The area is a militant hub and has been the target of a series of attacks on security forces and civilians since Pakistan stepped up its national-security offensive. Since mid-October, Pakistan has heightened watch over the South Waziristan area, where the Taliban has a stronghold.

Hopefully this tragic event should be another wake up call for those remaining elements in the Pakistani military or ISI that still believes that there is strategic value in supporting certain militiant groups in the region. The military's history of cosying up with the Taliban and other militant groups has only brought devastation to the country.

I agree with the other comment!! How long will it take other governments and peoples to recognize.."evil is evil". Eradicate it and do not accept it!!

Unfortunately, the ISI has created and nurtured these terrorist groups in order to protect Pakistan from it's enemies, India, Iran and Afghanistan. A little hiccup like this won't even phase them.

Could it have been an American drone operated by a Pakistani?
Readers might remember the Pak government has been asking for a few.
Thank you.
