As long as the political bosses are heavily guarded and safe their interest lies elsewhere - friendship with India, development of roads and highways, building of Metro, selling Pakistan's assets that fetch them fat kickbacks.

May God bless these martyrs and help my nation in fight against these religious extremists , who are the biggest enemies of Islam. I can't imagine how sad my prophet Mohammed ( PBUH) would be, he taught peace to the world and these evil people are exploiting my dear prophet and my merciful God.

Please stop this nonsense killing of Shias. They are equally Muslims like Sunnis.

Heart rending vales of the relatives should be heard by the power Hungary politicians who have bread these monsters of death and destruction. May god grant the souls of the dead a place in heaven and solace to the aggrieved. When shall Pakistan learn that their policy of breading the devils shall always boomerang.

As sad as this incident is, please do not make any comparisons with Peshawer, it is a planet away from what happened in Peshawer.

Really a sad event coming just a few days after the terrible happening at Pesawar.Countrywide search should be undertaken to confiscate hidden Arms and explosive materials.

I don't see an end to all of this in Pakistan. The reason being are the corrupt Paki politicians and also the dead public. 15 people died in Paris, France and they had 3.5 million people on the road with leaders from 44 nations. Compare this to Pakistan where 130-140 kids got murdered recently and no one came out screaming for them. This is what I call a dead nation, who cares only when one of their own dies otherwise nobody cares!

Tibetan spiritual leader, the Dalai Lama, believes India is safe for the Muslim community, and the degree of security can be a ray of hope for the persecuted Shia community in Pakistan.
“Pakistan is a Muslim country but Shias are not safe there. But Muslims are safe in India. The Shia community should come to India and (be) safe,” he said on Tuesday at a programme organised by the Presidency University in Kolkata. The Tibetan spiritual leader added that Indian Muslims can offer lessons in Sunni-Shia harmony as the Shias are safe in India.
State education minister and Trinamool Congress (TMC) leader Partha Chatterjee was left shocked when the Dalai Lama remarked that he is a ‘Marxist’. “I am a Marxist and still a Marxist (sic),” he said. “Many Marxist leaders are now capitalists in their thinking. It depends on their motivation, thinking and a wider perspective.”
