Pakistan

I was at work when we heard that Benazir Bhutto had been shot. My assistant from Pakistan was very upset. She says that today no-one can leave home in Pakistan for fear of unrest. All the Western reports lament the death of someone perceived as an ally. I hear if she had regained power she would have let the American forces pursue fugitives fleeing into her country. It is an ally but has also been responsible for the birth and nurture of the Taliban. It is a country where the Christian minority has a difficult time since the imposition of shari'a.
