Loss of innocent lives

Despite claims of success against militants and the arrest of several key militant figures in different parts of Pakistan, security forces’ installations and investigation centers have become prime targets.
After several attacks, including the GHQ and Rawalpindi cantonment area, it is clear that concrete walls and hidden cameras can’t prevent them.
The government of Pakistan is still not able to catch local sympathizers of militants who are providing shelter and logistic support to those who carry out horrible attacks on government and civilian installation.
In a recent horrible attack a suicide bomber blew up an explosive-laden vehicle outside the interrogation center of the Special Investigation Agency killing several innocent people, including women and children. If government can’t prevent such attacks it can shift such types of sensitive installations and investigation centers outside cities so that innocent people and their property will not be at risk.

Her aunt tried to protect her from the man but he shot her dead.
Ms Ahmed fled next door to her neighbour's, but the man followed and shot them all. Then Ms Ahmed fled, braving the perilous trip across the Gulf of Aden to reach Yemen.

SOMALIA - FAILED STATE
* Mogadishu mayor: 'I may be killed'
* City of corpses
* EU trains new government troops
* 'Heaven to hell'
Like most who spoke about the actions of the hardline Islamist al-Shabab and other militias in Somalia, he refused to have his name published, fearing reprisals against his family still living in Somalia.
The head office of the aid agency also requested their name not be published for fear of attacks on their staff members in the country.
'Beheaded'
"Women cannot move or sit outside. They can't even walk with their brother," says the aid worker.
"Unmarried women are forced to marry and if she refuses they say she's a non-Muslim. Many parents choose to send their girls away with relatives and friends so as not to be forced into marriage or raped.
"If a woman refuses a forced marriage, we have reports of them being beheaded and their head sent to their father."

Report abuseHowever, this coverage ignores that inside America, there has always been some home grown terroists. By home grown, I mean that they are born in America, mostly whites, of Christian background, and not 'foreign' nor 'alien'in any sense of the word. They are mainstream Americans ethnically and culturally.
Here is a sampling of some home grown terrorism:
Timothy McVeigh
Timothy McVeigh is the right wing Christian who bombed the FBI Building in Oklahoma City. Here is a mug shot of McVeigh.
The Unabomber
Ted Kaczynski - The Unabomber
Clayton Waagner
Clayton Waagner - Anti Abortion Terrorism
Eric Rudolph
Eric Rudolph is another anti-abortion terrorist, who recently pleaded guilty for bombing the Atlanta Olympics in 1996.
Robert Goldstein
Dr. Robert Goldstein, is a Jewish podiatrist. He plotted to bomb Islamic mosques, Islamic centers and Islamic schools with his wife.
William Krar and Judith Bruey
William Krar planned to use cyanide to poison thousands of people. He was dubbed The American Taliban afterhis arrest.
Army of God
The Army of God encourages killing doctors and nurses providing abortion, and burning their clinics. For example, check what Chuck Spingola, said on the Army of God web site.
Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold
Teenagers Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold perpetrated one of the most horrible crimes in the last decade, the infamous Columbine High School shooting rampage.
George Metesky
George Metesky, also known as The Mad Bomber, planted a bomb in a theatre in 1956, and attributed that to the "Hand of God'.
David Berkovitz
David Berkowitz, also known as Son of Sam, was a serial killer. More on him in this article.
Jeffrey Dahmer
Jeffrey Dahmer a serial killer and cannibal.
Future Threats
The FBI has a secret report highlighting threats of domestic terrorismfrom right wingers, supremacists, and others. Examples include AryanNations, the National Alliance and other ticking time bombs.
Meanwhile, although the media covers the fact that domestic extremist groups such as the Army of God, the Ku Klux Klan, and many others are a threat to America, the Department of Homeland Security have listed radical animal rights and environmental groups as threats to America, but deliberately left out all the right wing pontentially dangerous and extremist groups, such as white supremacists, anti-abortion bombers and violent militiamen. Experts on extremism have warned that these groups are ticking time bombs. U.S. Representative Bennie Thompson even wrote to the Homeland Security Secretary, Michael Chertoff reminding him of such threat, on the 10th anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing by Timothy McVeigh.
