The Taliban are in a long war to impose themselves and their Islamofundamentalism on Pakistan.
The army and the government have been playing footsie with them for decades.

But talks broke down under a wave of attacks by the Taliban and mounting political pressure to bring the violence under control.
Final score, 141 dead, 132 of them children.
