Terrible news. I've been following this throughout the day. Hopefully Pug and his family are safe.

I hope so.  Things just seem to get worse and worse.

Relevant, though perhaps inappropriate.

PS, Pug please try not to die.

I'm interested in what he was saying in that vid, even though it was undoubtedly completely irrelevant.

Also, Pug, when we say stay safe, what we mean is, "get the fuck out of Pakistan!" I worry about you as I sit here in suburbia America.

My g/f told me the news about Bhutto.  When she did, I immediately thought of Pug and was like, "Oh shit!"

Stay safe man!

Yeah, that's what happened to me when I heard people talk about it at work this morning.

I am saddened that she was assassinated by Al-Qaeda for wanting to continue to shake things up when elected. And I don't say if elected, but rather when. She had 75% of the vote in this country, which goes to show that it is the crazy 2% that is ruining it for the rest of Pakistan. Most of Pakistan wanted her to be the next leader, even though she was a woman, even though she bashed Islamic extremists in every speech, and even though she was a modern Muslim woman, and as moderate as Muslims go. She graduated from Harvard, and completed her post grad studies in Oxford. These characteristics didn't make the public hate her, but instead side with her.

This is why people wanted her as PM. The majority of people in the country aren't Islamic extremists, as I have now learned. She stood against those very things, and that's what made her so popular, and that's what scared Al-Qaeda.

However she wasn't squeaky clean, but she brought balance to the elections. The leader of the moderate party, the party that had over 75% of the votes locked... is now dead.

There are riots everywhere. I think someone needs to use this as an opportunity to direct this hate towards Al Qaeda in the Afghanistan/Pakistan border region.

I don't even know how to respond to that.  Is there any hope that these psychotics will ever lose their power?

Que I edited my previous post to add a few other things you might not have known about her.

As for them losing their power, who knows. Every time they've found these suicide bombers alive, they have determined they weren't Paksitani, Arab etc. They were either Afghani or from Uzbekistan.

It just takes one brainwashed mad man to pull something like this off. There are these terrorism cells on the border of the Afghanistan/Pakistan, that brain wash kidnapped infants into becoming suicide bombers.

The suicide bombers are coming from these areas are different than the ones in Palestine. The ones in Palestine have grown up around strife, have seen their loved ones killed, and grow up naturally with hate. Correct or not, they choose their path.

The suicide bombers coming from Afghanistan/Pakistan's border are brainwashed fanatics.

Children from the poor tribal areas of Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Afghanistan etc are kidnapped at birth and then strapped on chairs and forced to watched propaganda videos. That is their way of life.

Some of these suicide bombers are blackmailed. Their families are kidnapped, raped and tortured, till they agree to this.

You could tell what twisted logic the 9/11 hijackers had. They hated Americans for whatever reason, and wanted to hurt them. Same goes for the Palestinian suicide bombers, who while you can't agree with, can see that twisted logic.

But here, there isn't even a twisted form of logic. They are blowing themselves up among fellow Muslims. Not because they want to go to heaven, but because they have been programmed.

My immediate family is all abroad and living it up. My cousins and stuff are safe and at home.

My cats are keeping me company, though everything may be closed till Monday, so I may have some issues getting food. :P

That kitten sandwich pic could have "FATALITY" as a caption as well.

I just came into this thread for the first time and just scrolled down. You guys went from a potential serious board monster thread to kitten burgers in shorter time than usual.
