Various media outlets are reporting that the 5-star hotel the 'Pearl Continental' in Peshawar was hit by a truck bomb, overnight (Australian time).

So far 11 are confirmed dead and over 50 injured.

Not good when they start deliberately targeting foreigners. Looks like the Taliban is trying to set up Pakistan as their new base rather than Afghanistan.

As yet no-one has claimed responsibility for the attacks, but the government is pushing ahead with its attack on Taliban forces in the North of the country
