Senior Pakistani anti-Taliban cleric murdered by Taliban
“LAHORE, Pakistan – Suicide bombers attacked a mosque and a religious school within minutes Friday in two Pakistani cities, leaving one of the country’s most prominent anti-Taliban clerics dead in what authorities called a targeted killing.
No one immediately claimed responsibility for either blast, but relatives of Sarfraz Naeemi said he had received death threats recently after condemning suicide attacks as un-Islamic and the Taliban as murderers.”

*prayers* for the cleric and his family
That said, this has a very silver lining because it will further turn Pakistanis against the Taliban.
