At least 25 dead, dozens injured in Pakistan train station suicide blast


A suicide bombing near a railway station in Quetta, Pakistan, has claimed the lives of at least 25 people and injured another 53. The Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) has taken responsibility for the attack, which targeted the crowded platform of passengers.

Quetta Division Commissioner Hamza Shafqat confirmed the current death toll and that the attack was a suicide attack, according to CNN. The blast, which occurred around 9 am, caused widespread chaos as people ran for safety amidst the carnage. Senior Police Superintendent Muhammad Baloch confirmed that the platform was full of passengers at the time.

“There was a lot of chaos. People were running back and forth, people were lying martyred, some without legs and arms and hands,” an eyewitness told CNN. Among the killed are passengers as well as railway employees and security personnel.

The province’s chief minister has ordered an inquiry into the attack. Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif issued a statement heavily condemning the attack and vowing that those responsible “will pay a very heavy price for it.” The prime minister added that security forces are determined to eliminate “the mance of terrorism,” according to NBC News.

The BLA has intensified its insurgency in recent months, seeking independence from Pakistan. The separatist militant group has often sought to attack soft targets. In August, coordinated attacks on passenger buses and security forces throughout Balochistan resulted in over 50 fatalities, mostly civilians.

The separatists have also intentionally targeted foreigners. In October, it also targeted a convoy of Chinese engineers and investors, killing two Chinese citizens. This prompted the Chinese government to request that Pakistan ensure the safety of its citizens working in the country.

Liberal Elite At UN Climate Conference Calls For Meat Tax 

The UN Climate Change Conference, known this year as COP29, kicked off on Monday and will last through the 22nd of this month. Many of the usual climate grifters have skipped the event as de-growth ‘green’ policies in the US are being prepared to be rolled back to some degree under a Trump presidency. Even Swedish far-left activist Greta Thunberg skipped the event (pre-occupied with pro-Palestine protests?). 

On Tuesday, UN Secretary-General António Guterres told the world leaders who attended the event that last year’s meeting was a “master class in climate destruction,” adding, “The sound you hear is the ticking clock.”

Guterres also said the transition to clean energy “won’t be stopped by no group, no business, and no government.” He was likely referring to Trump’s plan to roll back certain climate policies that are strangling the economy and simultaneously boosting inflation, making US companies unable to compete in international markets. At the same time, China operates free of these de-growth policies. 

One particular speech by Willem Branten, the public affairs officer of True Animal Protein Price (TAPP) Coalition, a non-profit foundation focused on taxing real meat out of existence to reset the global food supply chain into a planet-based future, caught the internet’s attention given radical far left and their billionaire funders have been pushing fake meat and insects as a way to solve the so-called ‘climate crisis.’ 

LoL.

WEF propaganda non-sense. 

TAPP’s Branten said the quiet part out loud: using policy warfare, such as the “greenhouse gas emission price mechanism” – or a meat tax – to fund their climate crisis agenda and eventually end the overconsumption of animal protein.

Calling for a meat tax while US retail ground beef prices are soaring shows just how out-of-touch liberals are with concerns of the working class. That’s why they lost the election in the US. 

In other words, the themes of de-growth and de-population promoted by the UN are being pushed by radical leftists who want to control every facet of life—what you eat, drive, and how you live. Trump’s victory last week was a vote by the American people that rejects radical climate grifters and their Marxist friends that have sparked the worst inflation storm in a generation.
