More Violence Erupts Near Pakistan's Busiest Airport; Taliban Vows 'Full-Out War' -- CNN
(CNN) -- For the second time in two days, Pakistan's largest and busiest airport was forced to shut down after militants launched a brazen attack on airport security forces.
Tuesday's assault targeted the Airport Security Forces camp near Karachi's Jinnah International Airport, the airport's manager told CNN's Saima Mohsin.
It was not immediately clear how the militants were carrying out their attack or how many casualties may have resulted. At least 30 ambulances rushed to the scene, Mohsin said.
Once again, the Pakistani Taliban claimed responsibility.
"This wave of attacks will be continuing in retaliation for the shelling and atrocities of the government," spokesman Shahidullah Shahid said by phone from an undisclosed location.

Link corrected. Thank-you.
I just found out that I accidentally wrote over my post on Israel's intelligence minister comments on Iran with this post on the Karachi attack Mattathias. Grrrr ....
With this second attack and the fall of Mosul and the province of Nineveh we have entered a new and different phase. The radicals now have some big time momentum and brand new shiny heavy weapons. When this happens you can't stop. I think it's starting to be clear that the Sunni rads pulled off a pretty good strategic move. Tie down Hezbollah in Syria and go after the bigger prize Iraq. Now as discussed in other comments can they hold if the Iranians intervene?
