U.S. President Barack Obama condemned "in the strongest possible terms" Tuesday's attack by the Taliban on a military-run school in Pakistan. "By targeting students and teachers in this heinous attack, terrorists have once again shown their depravity," President Obama said in a statement. "We stand with the people of Pakistan, and reiterate the commitment of the United States to support the Government of Pakistan in its efforts to combat terrorism and extremism and to promote peace and stability in the region," President Obama said.
