Islam,Terrorism and Jihad
Pakistan: Terrorism and us
By Mir Jamilur Rahman
August 27, 2008

Taliban sent a strong reminder of their agenda when two of their suicide bombers brought havoc to the peaceful town of Wah Cantt near Islamabad. They killed 70 and injured another 100, leaving the citizens in grief and shock. Wah is a high security town because of its ordnance factory and yet the suicide bombers succeeded in penetrating its security. To be sure, there is perhaps no way to stop a suicide bomber from breaching the security if he is willing to forfeit his life. As an American president once said, it is not very difficult to assassinate the president of the US provided the assassin is prepared to give up his life.

Prime Minister Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani visited the scene of the Wah carnage to condole with the people who lost their breadwinners and near and dear ones. He assured them of the government's support in their rehabilitation. The prime minister told a news conference in Wah that economy and law and order are the priorities of his government.
