Islamists hid a bomb in a bicycle fruit basket and blew up the shrine of Kaka Sahib in Nowshera. A large number of people had gathered there for the holy Eid. Four people were killed in the attack.
Dawn reported:
Three people were killed and at least 25 injured when an explosion took place in the Ziarat Kaka Sahib area in Nowshera on Sunday.
According to the Nowshera police, a remote-controlled bomb had been planted on a bicycle in front of the main gate of the shrine of Kaka Sahib.
The shrine houses the grave of a famous Pashtun Sufi saint Kasteer Gul, who is known as Kaka Saheb. The shrine is often frequented by locals and a large number of people were also gathered there today on the occasion of Eid.
Security forces had cordoned off the area and the injured were shifted to local hospitals.
Among the 25 injured, five were reported to be in a critical condition.
SHO Nowshera Mumtaz Khan stated that the bomb weighed between 3-5kg and had been hidden inside a bag of fruits kept on the bicycle.

Funny…..I thought that Muslim holy places were supposed to be off limits…they were sacred or something. It can’t be that infidel westerners show more respect to Muslim holy places than do Muslims……
That can’t be it. Its like we’re civilized or something.

Well, if God could supply ‘Sandy’ to upset the left’s hopes of annihilating with Romney (yes I do think it’s more than coincidence so take that you self-satisfied atheist know it alls, under whose watch you’ve ruined the lives of our children and grandchildren for generations to come), perhaps He could do a little to show the truly wrong Islamofascist terrorist thugs that they are just not relevant with their PRIMITIVE murder theology.
Granny commented:
Ah well. They were the wrong sort of muslims you know, so they were not really muslims at all, worse than infidels in fact. The Holy Koran authorizes their killing.
Tom commented:
Kinda trumps a goofy video.

What I like most is Romney always starts his 5 point plan with energy independence. If the USA develops our own oil, gas and coal, we free ourselves from moslem blackmail. That is the ONLY option to change the dynamic in the Mid East. Everything else has been tried. World markets will improve drastically with a stable oil supply and in time of crisis, the POTUS could kick in a provision that US oil production stays home to meet domestic demand first.

The untold story is; the holy day Eid-al-adha, commemorates Abraham’s potential sacrifice of his son. To Christians and Jews that son was Issac his son from his wife Sarah. To Muslims that son was Ishmael, born of the slave girl Haggar. Therein lies the “enmity” between Ishmaels offspring and Issac’s….the account is in Genesis…worth reading

I don’t see any problem. Muslims killing other Muslims. Win = Win.
It’s the way they’ve been rolling since Muhammed croaked over their successive “leaders.”
Adirondack Patriot commented:
Muslims killing muslims = Muslim silence.
Tell a joke about Muhammad: Global muslim rage.
Islam is a joke.

#11 Morgan, actually Arabs killing Arabs goes way back before that. Pretty much all of Africa and the Middle East has been tribal warfare since the dawn of time and it hasn’t stopped. Today the Devil worshipping cult of mooslimes just use that as an excuse for more murder, rape, and looting.
Consider the Sunni vs. Shia war. In point of fact you have the Persians vs. the Arabs in that one and it’s all about who’s holier than who. Any excuse.
JPhat commented:
How many Korans destroyed and why no outrage from CAIR? Why no protests on the street by Muslim rage boys on the desecration of Korans? Why no apologies from Obama blaming it on a YouTube movie?
