Unfortunately, the people of PK typically blame the PK government for such bombings, rather than the people who are blowing them up.

The TB may very well get the government to back down if they can pull off several more high-profile bombings.

Run of the mill suicide bombings which only kill a few people happen all the time over there and are more or less commonplace...but big ones will get a lot of attention.



The attack on the ISI is very interesting as the ISI has long been accused of being complicit with the Taliban. Are we seeing hard feelings over a rough break up?
