and my heart goes out to them (assuming it is not a big Pakistani intelligence agency propaganda show.) In a perfect world, such tragedies should not occur. In a perfect world, 9/11, 7/11 or 26/11 shouldn't occur either.

I wish the US congress gave exposure to hundreds of families who have been far more hurt by terrorism coming from Pakistan in the US, UK, India and Afghanistan.

What happened to this family may have been from a misguided drone attack but there is great contributory culpability on the part of the Pakistani ISI, military and government who recruit, fund, arm and support terrorist outfits to cause mayhem in several countries.
