I was going to say that. The military leadership of that time was comparatively much more professional including people like Gen. Tariq Khan.

Now we only have politicians, anarchists and lackeys masquerading has military top brass.

Quetta's railway controller Muhammad Kashif told the BBC that 400-450 passengers had been booked on the train.

Officials have not confirmed how many they think have been taken hostage.

A local railway official in Quetta told the BBC that a group of 80 passengers - 11 children, 26 women and 43 men - had disembarked the train and reached the nearest railway station, Panir.

The group had boarded a cargo train to Mach railway station, from where a bus was set to take them back to Quetta.

The official said the group was made up of locals from the province of Balochistan.

One man told the BBC his wife and children were in the group, but that his brother-in-law was still being held on the train.

Looks like a family affair. Hope it ends without loss of innocent lives.

Military should stop wasting resources on political meddling, and start doing their actual job.

But...but....internal threats from a man who's already in prison.

Will there be any enquiry about how this actually happened?

No, why would there be? Nothing happened.

Treason to suggest that any Pakistani agency would be incompetent.

/s

I'm obviously joking, because you make good points that everyone else has made on this forum, and that's precisely why nothing is going to happen.

They'll blame India, and Afghanistan, and just move on. Maybe do an air strike, but nothing more.

Let me guess, another strongly worded statement at the UN? Do you think Taliban care about what UN says? Would sanctions even make a difference to them?

Just need to accept you will have to fight out. Trump is on your side, west is on your side as they can clearly see they are barbaric. This time they will have nowhere to run.

Make sure the pilots are Punjabi, get the children of the ones that got killed on the bus to sign the bombs.

Start the collateral at 200 and see if there is detterence. Increase by 100 every attack. It will be over within 2 months.

Al Jazeera made a documentary about Balochistan in 2012 called "Balochistan: Pakistan's other war".

Remember the reaction against it and most people dismissed it as "fake".

Or when BBC released a video in Lahore around 2014 and most people couldn't name a single city there.

So these things have been swept under the rug either consciously or subconsciously and either of those vids would be labeled "RAW propaganda".

The Baloch insurgency existed since 1947, Pakistan's founding, but its current phase has been there since 2004 after Musharraf let the province burn and allowed Shazia Khalid to be r4ped.

Yeah, under Raheel Sharif, their capabilities became very limited and they had recruitment issues but its clear they have bounced back and have adapted. Since Raheel Sharif left, we have seen more and more crazy attacks ranging from killing laborers, attacking the Karachi Stock Market, to now having this.

I'm convinced Pakistan is a failed state, with nothing to show for its nuclear weapons. How does that even happen on a consistent basis with insurgencies in Balochistan and Waziristan spanning over 20+ years.

It is worrisome to say the least. If an attack of this magnitude happened in any other country it would have been sirens and alarm bells. Emergency meetings would have been convened. You can just see that it is business as usual in Pakistan.
