Government officials in Pakistan say a car bomb that killed more than two dozen people and wounded hundreds in the city of Lahore could be retaliation for the Pakistani militarys month-long war on the Taliban.

Lahore, the countrys second-largest city, is near the border with India, hundreds of miles away from the battle lines in Swat Valley. Until recently, Lahore was considered safe from militant attacks, but no longer, after the third deadly terrorist attack in Lahore since March.

Alex Thier of the United States Institute of Peace joins Martin Savidge to discuss the bombing, public opinion about the government offensive and the refugee situation in Swat and the surrounding region.
