PESHAWAR, Pakistan (AP) — A top Pakistani official says that 84 students have been killed in a Taliban attack on a military-run school in the northwestern city of Peshawar.

Pervez Khattak, the chief minister of the province where the attack is underway, says that roughly the same number of students have been wounded.

According to Khattak, the 84 killed in the Tuesday attack were all "children" but hospital officials earlier said at least one of the fatalities was a teacher and one security official were also among the dead.

Khattak says the fighting is still unfolding at the school.

From one story:

A student who was in the school at the time of the attack told local media: “The gunmen entered class by class and shot some kids one by one.”

About 500 students and teachers were believed to be inside the site when gunfire erupted.

ROP true believers justify their evil
Remember this name
"Taliban spokesman Mohammed Khurasani claimed responsibility for the attack in a phone call to media, saying that six suicide bombers had carried out the attack in revenge for the killings of Taliban members at the hands of Pakistani authorities

Not all Muslims are terrorists, but it sure seems like all terrorists are Muslims.

Murdering savages. Why doesn’t the world see we’re going to have to come to grips with the bastards soon; nukes are at play here? (Which is why I have to work on my reading skills... When I first looked at this, I skimmed the title and read “Pakistan minister, 84, dead in Taliban attack”... Pucker time!)

Makes no difference if the victims were teachers or students, they were killed by savages, plain and simple.

ISLAM is NOT a religion of peace, its a disease of the mind.

Horrible if it happened as we’re being told. Muslim vermin have no conscience whatsoever. Ann Coulter was right. We have to invade their lands, kill their leaders and anyone who looks at us cross-eyed, and convert the remainder to Christianity.

It would appear they’re ramping up their Christmas season festivities. I suspect there will be attacks nearly daily up until Christmas.

Evil will need to be confronted. The western world is still complacent, IMHO.

Brave Tolibuns attacking children. Innocent blood necessary to satisfy their murderous moon god. No wonder the true God would sometimes have the ancient Israelites totally wipe out their enemies like excising a cancer.
