The assault commando of the Pakistan Taliban Movement (TTP) has claimed the lives of 148 people, including 132 children and teenagers on Tuesday in a public school of the army in Peshawar (north-west), the bloodiest terrorist attack in Pakistan’s history.

On site, the second day of national mourning to be completed Friday, sadness mingled with a desire to strike back at TTP, the holy war against the government killed more than 7,000 people across the country since 2007.

With its walls stained with blood and riddled with bullet holes, the martyr school was ravaged by eight hour rampage, the emergence of the Taliban to their deaths after exchanges of fire fed with Pakistani forces.

But the authorities have promised to hand over the building in a state on January 4, less than three weeks after the attack. In front of the hotel Thursday, hundreds of students, parents and people caught up in this tragedy watched or deposited wreaths to honor the victims.

There, Mohammad Bilal, 14, says he wants to challenge his parents, who prefer see at home, returning as soon as possible in the classroom. I’ll be there as soon as the school will reopen. I’m not afraid of terrorists, I know how they get the message, returning to school, he told AFP.

The Taliban threaten again
I’ll be a soldier to avenge the death of my friends and classmates, says Moakal who lost nine relatives in the carnage convicted both abroad and in Pakistan, where people demand more than ever in the army, the most powerful institution in the country, to stop the violence.
