Locals Take Action

After the unislamic bombing of a Masjid during Juma prayers by the self-proclaimed "Muslim" fighters [the Pakistani taliban] in Upper Dir, the locals have had enough. As many as 1,600 locals got together and formed a Lashkar [a fighting force] to avenge the death of 33 worshippers. One resident of Upper Dir was quoted saying“We are Muslims … we don’t want them, they have to go. Attacking a mosque is not Islam. They’re not Muslim.” Over the weekend 13 militants have been killed by the Lashkar as well as 5 villages known to be taliban strongholds have been attacked. Also 25 homes of taliban commanders and their fighters were destroyed by the group. The Pakistani people have realised the enemy within their nation and the taliban's influence in Pakistan is dropping rapidly. The days of the miscreants in our nation is numbered...
