MidnightWatcher – Prophecy in Motion

According to Barack Hussein Obama “the Taliban are not our enemies and we don’t want to fight them.” Because Obama would rather negotiate with terrorists instead of eradicating them. A wise leader “scatters the wicked like wheat, then runs his threshing wheel over them” (Proverbs 20:26). Unfortunately, given Obama’s track record as President and his inability to heed even the Pentagon’s own advice at times, wisdom is one virtue that this Commander-in-Chief is seriously lacking …

By David Williams, Mail Online – “Gunmen disguised as police guards attacked a terminal at Pakistan’s busiest airport on Sunday with machine guns and a rocket launcher during a five-hour siege that left 27 people dead as explosions echoed into the night.

The Pakistani Taliban, an alliance of insurgent groups fighting to topple the government and set up a sharia state, later claimed responsibility, saying it was in response to army attacks along the Afghan border.

The attack on the Jinnah International Airport in Karachi, began late Sunday and continued on into the dawn hours of Monday, although officials said all the passengers had been evacuated.

The Pakistani Taliban said they carried out the attack in response to air strikes in their strongholds near the Afghan border and suggested their mission was to hijack a passenger plane.

‘The main goal of this attack was to damage the government, including by hijacking planes and destroying state installations,’ said Shahidullah Shahid, a Taliban spokesman.

‘This was just an example of what we are capable of and there is more to come. The government should be ready for even worse attacks.’

Rizwan Akhtar, the chief of Pakistan’s elite paramilitary Rangers, said some of the attackers appeared to be Uzbeks but officials were still investigating to determine their identity and nationality.

‘The terrorists entered the terminal in two groups. They were foreigners, and some of them seemed to be Uzbeks.’

During the course of the attack, heavy gunfire and multiple explosions could be heard coming from the terminal, used for VIP flights and cargo, as militants and security forces battled for control.

A major fire rose from the airport, illuminating the night sky in an orange glow as the silhouettes of jets could be seen. The deadly operation was carried out by 10 militants, said the Chief Minister of Sindh province, Qaim Ali Shah.

‘They were well trained. Their plan was very well thought out,’ he told reporters. He said they intended to destroy some of the aircraft and buildings.” Read more.
