Suicide Blast in Lahore

GEO News reports a suicide blast in Lahore in Allama Iqbal town. Possibly 5 killed and 20 injured.  Lahore is reportedly on high alert.

If the Pakistan Taliban claim responsibility, will this attack–minutes before Pakistan’s Independence Day–put them on the defensive as being anti-Pakistan?

If they don’t claim responsibility, will this be seen as an attack by India’s Research and Analysis Wing (RAW)?

It has already been hot.  And it will get hotter.
