I don't know, Six.
It seems that the six militants who stormed the school were responding to what Pakistani military (I guess they are amongst the "asshats" you're talking about?) have already been doing about "this".
Those asshats have either been offensively pursuing or defensively hitting Taliban tribes for the last couple of years. The hit on the army-run school was reportedly payback for anti-Taliban initiatives.
If it turns out that any of the 5 prominent (Afghan) Taliban members that Obama released from Gitmo in exchange for Sgt. Bergdahl was involved in the planning of this terrible attack on the army school, Obama will definitely be skewered. (ETA: I've seen no one speculate about such a link; my pondering only.)
