@Hamaad Haider: LOL..
@Rana Amjad & @Hamaad Haider. nonsense comments, nonsense people
This is terror that spares none. They call themselves, the "warriors of Islam". I would like to know how Islamic it is to destroy Allah's creations. Especially one which has been declared inferior. They can't talk, they are not as sensible as us. This is a scientific fact.
It's just a prank I am sure or at least I hope it is!!
Were the animals also having anti-Islam thoughts that they had to be killed by bombing?
Infidel animals being taught a lesson by the terrorists,convert or face the punishment at the hands of the jihadis.
Looks like CIA-RAW-Mossad are busy conspiring to defame Pakistan and then put the blame on the brave Taliban!!
How tragic, even the zoo animals are not safe in Pakistan.
So cowards are targeting caged animals and innocent children mainly! Shame on you!
Because even the animals are kaafirs and do not have shariah compliant bank accounts. If you blow them up you will secure a place as a zoo keeper in heaven. Oh and any humans killed along the way are bonus, cause they probably are kaafirs with non-shariah compliant bank accounts as well.
Probably planted where Lion of America is caged as seen on photo! Insanity at its peak.
Good work that this bomb was detected in time. BUT how was it taken inside and planted without being detected?
