LAHORE, Pakistan — Teams of gunmen launched a deadly near-simultaneous attack on three law enforcement facilities in Pakistan's eastern city of Lahore on Thursday, a major escalation in an audacious wave of terror strikes as this U.S.-allied, nuclear-armed country prepares for an offensive in a Taliban and Al Qaeda stronghold.

At least seven people died in a gunfight with police at a federal building, 10 others were killed at a police academy, and a police constable was killed in an attack on a commando facility, officials said as the city plunged into chaos.

In the Taliban-riddled northwest, meanwhile, a homicide car bomber detonated his vehicle next to a police station, killing at least ten people, while a suspected U.S. missile strike killed four alleged militants, officials said.

So who does our communist in chief support?

The muslim terrorists or the police officers?

Given Obama's associations with terrorists who favor killing police officers, one truly has to wonder.

Well, that could be an actual toughy. The jihadiscum terrorists are upfront, open and obvious enemy of the US, so they’re peachy keen in his view. But...

Them Pakistanis are doing as much as they can get away with to help them terrorists, so, they can’t be half bad, can they?

Who to choose?

Yeah, that Peace Prize was so deserved.

I mean, just look at what is happening with Russia, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, NK and SE Asia.

We are in deep doo doo!

How ironic. Islam is a religion of peace, and Zero wins the peace prize.
