Peshawar Madrassah terror attack can be an attempt to sabotage Afghan peace process. The madrassah is said to be under Haqqanis’ influence& blast occurred when influential cleric Rahimullah Haqqani was delivering sermon to hundreds of students.

Veteran journalist Robert Sam Anson died. He wrote in VANITY FAIR: “The why is always the hardest question for a journalist to answer and it’s what brought Danny Pearl to Pakistan. ‘I want to know why they hate us so much,’ he said." Rest In Peace. washingtonpost.com/local/obituari…
