Our deepest and most heartfelt condolences go to the friends and families of the victims who were killed in this heartless act of terror. It is heartbreaking to see that children were the prime targets of this attack. At the same time, these terrorists leave very little to ponder regarding their evil mentality and the threat they pose to the nation of Pakistan. The regular attacks throughout the region prove that these terrorists are not leaving any stone unturned in their bid to take over. The nation of Pakistan in particular has faced severe damage due to their acts of terror. The need of the hour is to stop these terrorists from furthering their evil agenda. We must find a way to look past our differences, and combine our strength to eradicate this threat that continues to haunt the region. These terrorists are also well aware of our differences, and therefore, we must not shift the advantage in their favor by remaining tangled in our disagreement.
