Pakistan bombings

Her bloody face twisted in a cry of despair and fear, a young girl cradles the body of her mother in the middle of a Karachi road.
She can't stop staring at the mess of her mother's intestines, spilled out along the smoking, debris-strewn street.
Her eyes are dead with shock. They were supposed to be safe.

Twenty-two people died in the first blast, torn apart when a suicide bomber on a motorbike blew himself up among a group of Shi'ite Muslims in the commercial centre of the city.
And, horrifyingly, it was the second time today that such a method was used.
Earlier today, in Iraq, a twin car bombing targeted a crowd of Shi'ite pilgrims as they walked to the holy city of Karbala, south of Baghdad, for a major religious ceremony.
Like the bombings in Karachi, the attackers struck twice - using one bomb to herd their victims in place for another.
The first explosion, a parked car bomb, sent throngs of pilgrims running down the highway - and straight into the path of a suicide car bomber.
The crowds made it difficult for ambulances to get to the wounded, another police official said.

It was the third deadly bombing this week hitting the ceremony in which hundreds of thousands of Shi'ites have been converging on the city of Karbala.
The violence took place as Iraqi politicians argued over an effort to bar hundreds of candidates from running in the March 7 parliamentary elections.
In Karachi, the attacks are bound to raise further questions about the effectiveness of security crackdowns on resilient al Qaeda-backed Taliban militants at a time when Washington is pushing Pakistan to help stabilise neighbouring Afghanistan.
It's not clear whether the attack was meant to trigger sectarian violence or create the impression that the government was incapable of stabilising nuclear-armed Pakistan.

Pakistani Taliban have carried out waves of bombings at crowded markets and army and police facilities, killing hundreds of people since October in a bid to topple the pro-American government of unpopular President Asif Ali Zardari.
Karachi has been largely free of Islamist violence over the past couple of years, but a bomb at a minority Shi'ite Muslim procession in late December that killed 32 people fuelled concern that the militants were expanding their fight to the city.

They attacked a procession of worshippers and then detonate a bomb to kill the wounded?, subxaanalah. What religion do these maniacs adhere to?

This poor girl lost her mother, AUN.
