The Taliban in Pakistan is vowing revenge, after its leader was killed in a U.S. drone strike last week.

A spokesman for the group also announced that Maulana Fazlullah will now lead the group.

While Pakistan publicly condemns U.S. drone strikes the Taliban suspects the government has all the information it needs about the attacks. The strike came on the eve of peace talks between the Taliban and the government. Thos talks have been called off

Rafiq Rijwana from the ruling party is fed up.

PARLIAMENTARIAN FROM RULING PAKISTAN MUSLIM LEAGUE NAWAZ (PML-N) PARTY, RAFIQ RIJWANA, SAYING:

"All the efforts for reconciliation, all the efforts to bring the Taliban on the table for dialogue, for peace, for solutions, have failed. Now what should be the next step? Because I personally feel, and I repeat it time and again, that we can't put the people of Pakistan at the mercy of these terrorists."

It's a view shared by some citizens in Islamabad.
