Assistant Professor of Government Barbara Elias was invited by CTV News to share her knowledge of the Pakistani Taliban in the wake of the attack on a school in Peshawar that left 141 children dead. Elias, who is wrapping up a semester during which she taught the courses Weapons of the Weak and United States Foreign Policy, says it was a message and a personal attack, as the children killed belonged to families of the Pakistani army, which took action against Pakistani militants earlier this year.
