Echoing the sentiment that the boy is a hero to the definition. I wish we lived in a world where children weren't put in the position to give their life to save another. I hope his family finds peace.

I feel so incredibly humbled. I will never be as brave. Rest in peace kid.

How exactly is bombing other Muslims part of this jihad? Just curious what kind of shit they are being fed to get talked into doing this. I can at least wrap my head around American targets.
This isn't about Islam or Jihad, it's about power, as everything in history has ever been.

It's not fair that he was in that situation but he sacrificed himself for his country and his friends. I love that person.

I think there could be many reasons

1) It's a co-op school, so boys and girls are interacting daily. Terrorists hate that.
2) Girls being educated, especially being literate. Terrorists hate that.
3) They're Shi'a. Terrorists hate that.

They want to elliminate the liberals and the educated. You think these taliban commanders like seeing kids goto school? learning math or science? No! They want their parents to send them to madaras instead, so they can brainwash them and create an army of suicide bombers

I don't know what to say except mad respect for Atizaz. If there is jahannam, I hope suicide bombers go to the deepest part of it.

I can only hope I would be this courageous if put in a similar position. He just went out and did it like a true hero would. No hesitations and asking himself "what if?". All that was important to him was the safety of his friends and fellow citizens.

how can people say they wouldn't or couldn't do it?

Either you and everyone else dies, or you die and you save hundreds of people.

Kudos to that kid. Requiescat in pace. Let's hope his government gives something to his family for his sacrifice.

You read a story about this and you can't help but wonder would you do the same. This is a kid who was truly brave, who deserves the term hero that is tossed around so much. Nothing but respect for him.

Bitterly disappointing to see a thread like this right above a thread about Dennis Rodmans dumb ass.

This guy is a hero
 
A true hero.

RIP.

Do you know what a madrase is ? It's a school. In arabic. The word madrase is the word for school in arabic. Geez.

For the people asking for a reason for a sucidide bomber killing muslims then I don't think it's because of education. Some militant jihadists see Shia's and other muslims not agreeing with their own views as apostates and or a kafir. Even sunnis too. These people are usually called Takfiri Jihadists and often follow a strict interpretation of Islam. If you want to learn more about this phenomenon try looking up Sayyid Qutb, he has authored some of the most influental books in the subject.
 
This kid must never be forgotten for the greatest selfless sacrifice.

Rest in peace.

It's sort of coincidental you say that, because I read a story about a Marine that put his body over a live grenade to reduce collateral damage to his fellow soldiers. Heard about the story around 7 years ago and told myself I'd never forget it/his name. I understand there is a massive difference between a soldier and a 15-year-old civilian, but it just reminded me of it.

Mad props to the teen. It's giving me all sorts of feelings; this is tragic and heroic all-in-one.

What an incredible human being. And what a vile one who tries to carry out the act in the first place.

At least there are those out there just as brave and courageous as there are evil and wicked. RIP.
 
A second hero died today in pakistan. Not a good day :/

Chaudhry Aslam Khan, Karachi Police Chief who single handedly made it his mission to take down the Taliban in Karachi was killed by the Taliban in Karachi today. The guy was ruthless against terrorists.


http://m.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-25667842

A senior police officer known in Pakistan for campaigning against the Taliban has been killed in a bomb blast in Karachi.

Chaudhry Aslam, the head of the city's anti-terror operations, and at least two others died in an attack on a police convoy in the Essa Nagri area of the city, reports say.

Mr Aslam had survived a number of previous attempts on his life.

The Pakistani Taliban said they carried out Thursday's attack.

A spokesman said Mr Aslam had been targeted as he had "killed, tortured and wounded" Taliban members.
 
how can people say they wouldn't or couldn't do it?

Either you and everyone else dies, or you die and you save hundreds of people.


Did you read the story? If he knew he was coming he could have easily hauled ass out of there and saved his own skin, instead he goes to the bomber and sacrifices himself to save others
 
"My son made his mother cry, but saved hundreds of mothers from crying for their children," Mujahid Ali, Aitzaz's father is quoted as saying.


what a dam good quote.

This is way too fucking intense for me to even imagine.

I'm so glad I live in a place where things like this aren't a daily occurrence.

Aitzan was a better person than I will ever be. That's a fact.

RIP.
