Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) leaders said that an Army operation in North Waziristan Agency would serve to unleash terrorist attacks across the country. Addressing party workers at a sit-in near the Parliament House on December 5, they said that if the Army agreed to launch an operation in North Waziristan Agency it would be asked by the US to launch similar operations in southern Punjab on the pretext of “presence of extremists in the area”. JI Amir (chief) Syed Munawar Hassan warned that any such adventurism would result in disastrous consequences by producing militants in each and every part of the country.

At least 40 persons, including tribal elders, Security Force personnel and journalists were killed and another 70 injured on December 6 in twin suicide bombings on a jirga (Tribal council) being held outside the office of the assistant political agent of Mohmand Agency at Ghalanai, the headquarters of Mohmand Agency, in Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA), reports Daily Times. Among the dead were 12 Government officials and two television journalists –Pervez Khan and Abdul Wahab. Political Agent Zabit Khan is among the injured. According to Mohmand Political Agent Shamsul Islam, a jirga of a peace committee of Alizai and Safi tribes was in progress at the office of Roshan Khan Mehsud to devise a strategy against terrorism in the tribal region when two suicide bombers tried to enter into the premises, but blew themselves up when stopped by security personnel. The ‘chief’ of the Mohmand chapter of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), Umer Khalid, claimed responsibility for the attack. “Our two suicide bombers targeted people who were working against the Taliban,” Umer Khalid told AFP by telephone from an unknown location. “Those who will work against us and make lashkars (tribal army) or peace committees will be targeted. Our war is to enforce Sharia and anyone who hinders our way or sides with America will meet the same fate,” Khalid added.
