The Lahore Tribune

My friend lives in the peaceful G.O.R. off Mall Road, two houses down from the Pakistan Navy War College, across Aitchison College, Lahore. When the four consecutive bomb blasts went off, his mother was the only one at the house and as she later recalled, the shock waves nearly shattered the house’s windows.

Windows nearly shattered, but one thing that actually may have been disintegrated is the relative confidence and sense of security people had started to feel, given the recent clear victory of ballot power over wallet power.

Terrorism has no religion, and claim as they may, these callous terrorists are not even close to being in the same vicinity of even remotely being called Muslims. Politically, no one has even for a moment doubted the sheer difficulty the new government will face in the form of tackling this weirdly ubiquitous state-of-mind, more commonly known as terrorism.

God guide and help us all. Aameen.
