I wonder if this has anything to do with Qatar. It's seems so coincidental.

Luckily the terrorists haven't caused much damage. Take them out.

Suicide bomber exploding in Khomeini mausoleum!!

 

[I S I]

These Well-Coordinated attacks points towards well prepared and trained terrorist module with an outside power help.

This looks like Mumbai 26/11 of Iran.

Trying to be relevant i see.

God forbid, it should not be as deadly as Mumbai Attack or Parliament attack. I wish success to Iran and we stand with Iran during this hard time.

As trump, your beloved avatar, stands by Iran!

God forbid, it should not be as deadly as Mumbai Attack or Parliament attack. I wish success to Iran and we stand with Iran during this hard time.

It is not about how deadly an attack is. It is about what they are targeting.

It is the audacity to attack highly guarded compounds to inflict terror on the minds of common people.

Terror is not for who have already died but it is for living beings to see the consequences.

I hope Iran would not be cowed down by these cowardly tactics of the enemy.

In a couple of days Arab vs Iran would be the hottest debate. Wonder what is uncle Sam up to behind the scenes

Something big is about to hit Turkey as well. If a major war erupts in middle east, Pakistan will be the main target.
