What were the Taliban militants shouting as they were roaring through the school hallways? "God is Great". Some would say God forgot to show up in Peshawar, Pakistan as there was a school bombing that killed 145, and majority of them were children.

Then, 14-year-old student Ahmed Faraz recalled, one of them took a harsher tone.

" 'A lot of the children are under the benches,' " a Pakistani Taliban said, according to Ahmed. " 'Kill them.' "

By the time the hours-long siege at Army Public School and Degree College ended early Tuesday evening, at least 145 people -- 132 children, 10 school staff members and three soldiers -- were dead, military spokesman Gen. Asim Bajwa said. More than 100 were injured, many with gunshot wounds, according to Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province Information Minister Mushtaq Ghani. The death toll does not include the terrorists who attacked the school, bursting into an auditorium where a large number of students were taking an exam and gunning down many of them within minutes, Bajwa said.

No words. Plenty of rage, though.
 
Mehhh...

Another Tuesday in the Arab/Muslim world.

Surprised this is even news.
 
The destruction of the value of education will only serve to keep these countries stupid, down in the dirt, and soon useless.

It appears that the only successful countries that are Muslim dominated will continue to be: Saudi Arabia (backwards ass country, once oil dependency goes they can kiss their ass goodbye), Qatar, and the UAE.
 
The governments and liberals, however, still believe that islam is a great religion and a religion of peace.
