Pakistan Police place Bhutto under house arrest

    Pakistani police backed by armored vehicles detained opposition leader Benazir Bhutto at her Islamabad residence Friday and reportedly rounded up 5,000 of her supporters to block a planned mass protest against emergency rule, officials said.

    Authorities were adamant the rally Bhutto planned in nearby Rawalpindi would not go ahead — under the government’s emergency powers President Gen. Pervez Musharraf declared last weekend, mass gatherings are banned. Mayor Javed Akhlas also said there was a “credible report” of six or seven suicide bombers in the city.


    Chaos what will happen next ?

    Big big problems. A very large populous nation with nuclear weapons is in the midst of chaos. Taliban and fundamentalist al-queda terrorists have carved out a part of the land where they are currently immune from attack.

    The existing military govt is cracking down on the moderate class that is modern, moderate, and a strong deterrant to extreme Islamic terrorists groups.

    This is a seriously dangerous situation.

    Ohh boy! Isn't this Musharaf character the same ally that Bush touted as a friend in the "war against terror"?

    That is very very true.

    But the dumbass sheeple will still think that a country years and years away from having the capability to make nuclear (or is that Nookular) weapons is more dangerous because FOCKS News told them so. :rolleyes:
