Attack at Lahore hospital (II)

LAHORE: The attack at Jinnah hospital reflects extremely poorly on the police as well the Punjab government. What kind of security was in place that the terrorists openly walked into a hospital and went about shooting anyone who came within their sight and firing range? What is the Punjab government waiting for before launching a crackdown on the militancy that seems to be fast engulfing the province? An attack on the assembly building?
