Cowardly attacks

Author: Daily Times

Sir: Those who would have the world believe that they are holy warriors fighting for God have once again proven that they are common thugs and cowards. The recent attacks on girls’ schools in Gilgit Baltistan’s Darel and Tangir valleys is yet another case of these criminals attacking soft targets because they no longer have the ability to target the military and police like they did before December 2014.

Responsibility for these attacks has been claimed by an offshoot of the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), the same organisation which was behind the Army Public School Massacre. Our law enforcement agencies and military must give the terrorist a befitting reply to show them that Pakistanis cannot be terrorised any longer.Already, the country proved that it does not fear terrorists by going to vote on July 25 despite the numerous incidents of terror attacks on election campaigns.
