A bomb attached to a police vehicle went off in Quetta, Pakistan. The explosion killed 13 and injured at least 11 others ten of which were security personnel. The devastating event was planned and carried out by The Taliban to avenge the deaths of militants in the northwest. Attacks like this have happened before in Pakistan and have recently mostly targeting the Shia. The government has been and will continue to work on increasing security in Quetta.
In 1945 the US did something that shocked the world. As an attempt to make Japan surrender in WWII, the US dropped two atomic bombs in the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The explosions killed around 150,000-246,000 people most being killed by radiation exposure. Although the bombing in Quetta was much, much less devastating, it was still caused by conflict and the need for revenge. Both caused lives to be lost and actions to be taken and both could have been prevented if so many people in the world weren't blinded by pride and stubbornness.
