the taliban didn’t kill these kids in cold blood because they went to school. they did it because the army recently launched an operation in Waziristan which is a Taliban stronghold. the operation is called zarb-e-azb. the kids who died went to a school run by the pakistani army and the majority were likely the kids of army men. it was an attack in retaliation among other factors. don’t reduce it to “because they went to school.”
