SNIPPET: “The Taliban stormed the office of a US aid group operating in northwestern Pakistan, killing six Pakistani employees.
Armed fighters attacked an office operated by World Vision International, a Christian charity that has been aiding victims of the devastating earthquake in 2005. The aid group has sought to provide schooling, jobs, food, and other basic needs for Pakistanis impacted by the earthquake and other natural disasters.
Police fought a major battle with the heavily armed Taliban fighters, who entered the World Vision office in the town of Oghi in Mansehra district.
“Some armed people stormed the building of World Vision NGO,” Sajid Khan, a police official, told AFP. There was firing and also an explosion inside.” The Taliban fighters hurled hand grenades in the office, according to police.”
SNIPPET: “But an unnamed aid worker present at the attack told AFP that six people were killed and six more were seriously wounded.
The Taliban have targeted aid groups in the region, claiming the groups are un-Islamic and are seeking to spread Christianity.”

When I appear before the One True God on the Day of Judgement, I hope those words are said of ME. "un-islamimic and trying to spread Christianity".
