Pakistan’s civilian and military leaders vowed to eliminate terrorists a day after 132 students were slaughtered, signaling a move to combat a Taliban movement it has periodically fought and talked to.

“No difference will be made between good and bad Taliban,” Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif told reporters yesterday after meeting leaders of the country’s main political parties in Peshawar, where the attack occurred that killed 148 people, most of them students. “We all pledged to fight terrorism until the last terrorist is eliminated from our soil.”
