And yet again more Muslim Killing Muslim Violence .
I don't know why anyone in Pakistan that is not A goat herding Taliban lover , would rather support the Taliban , who kill more Muslims than they do Infidels , than support the effort to Rid the country of them once and for all !
Two near-simultaneous bomb blasts tore through a crowded market in the eastern Pakistani city of Lahore on Monday, killing at least 36 people and injuring more than 100.
Police said many of the dead were women and children.
Earlier, a suicide bomber killed 10 people outside a courthouse in the northwestern city of Peshawar.
Pakistan has been hit with a wave of terrorist strikes as its army tries to clamp down on Islamic militants in the nation's tribal areas along the border with Afghanistan. Although many of those attacks have been directed at Pakistani armed forces, police and intelligence agencies, insurgents at times have targeted crowded markets in the country's largest cities.
The attack in Lahore occurred at 8:45 p.m. at the Moon Market, a popular bazaar that was packed with shoppers. Police say one of the bombs was detonated by remote control; they were investigating whether the second was a suicide blast.
The explosions took place about 30 seconds apart. The first occurred at the back of the market and sent throngs of shoppers running toward the front, police said. As the crowd reached storefronts and stalls at the front end, a second blast occurred there.
The explosions gutted rows of shops, many of which sold clothes and shoes and were frequented by women with children in tow. Televised images from the scene showed flames shooting skyward as fighters struggled for hours to put out the blaze.
And to Emphasize a point made here ,
"Police said many of the dead were women and children."
