“J&K: 8 CRPF jawans killed, 21 injured in ‘deadliest terrorist attack in 3 years,’” by Yusuf Jameel, Deccan Chronicle, June 25, 2016:
Srinagar: In a major terror strike, two militants armed with assault rifles killed eight CRPF jawans and wounded 21 others on Saturday after ambushing a convoy bus travelling through the highway town of Pampore.
Officials said that both the militants were killed after they were engaged in a gun battle by a Road Opening Party (ROP) of the CRPF.
The authorities termed the incident as ‘deadliest terrorist attack’ in three years in Jammu and Kashmir. The militants opened fire on one of the buses in a 6-vehicle convoy of CRPF’s 161 Battalion near Nambalbal, Pampore, 17-km south of Srinagar, at 4 pm.
Confirming the casualties, Bhavesh Choudhury, spokesperson of CRPF said that the convoy was returning from a firing range after practice when they were attacked by the militants carrying Kalashnikovs.
The injured CRPF jawans have been admitted to Army’s 92-base Hospital at Badami Bagh cantonment.
At least half a dozen of those injured are critical, reports claimed and added that two of the eight CRPF jawans died on the spot whereas six others succumbed to their injuries on way to or in the hospital.
J&K police chief, K Rajendra Kumar, and CRPF Inspector General (Kashmir range) Nalin Prabhat, said that the attackers appeared to be Pakistani nationals and could be cadres of the Lashkar-e-Tayyaba….

They are, as Allen West says, “doing exactly what this book says”.
Coming soon, to a road near you.

The Quran is a war manual. Every muslim has to submit to Mohammed’s war manual. It is identical to everyone submitting to Hitler. The goal of the Quran, like the goal of Mein Kampf, was to subjugate all other belief systems. The Quran is a supremacist manifesto.
No Fear says
A moderate muslim thinks the war manual is a self improvement manual. An extremist muslim thinks the war manual is a war manual.

Yup it has become a comedy of errors with Pakistan. By the way when Abdul Basit, Pakistani High Commisioner to India was asked to give his opinion, he said to just enjoy the ‘iftar party’ and celebrate and that polotics can be discussed at a later date. How thoughtful and considerate. These creeps do not even know how to handle diplomacy. A failed state with failed economy, failed education, failed democracy and above all failed citizens.

How many non moslems have to die before people wake up. They will continue to kill and slaughter for allah until everyone bows to them. Am not bowing. I want them out of my community, out of my country. They don’t accept anything we’re about anywhere. Time for them to go. Time for the worm to turn.

This was done by Pakistanis, Pakistan’s terrorist organisation Lashkar -E-Toiba has claimed responsibility for this. Salute to martyrs who died defending our motherland. Jihad or no Jihad India will not yield Islamic Pakistan or its terror proxies.
