There have been several past attempts on Musharraf’s life, and now Bhutto is being targeted again. The Pakistani army is mobilizing in Waziristan to fight al-Qaida and Taliban forces. Let’s hope they kick butt.

Did they leave a calling card?

Did “Al Qaeda” hold a press conference? Make a Youtube video?

Just curious ....

From SKY News via Drudge:

“There have been two large explosions near to where former Pakistan Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto was being welcomed home.

Scene of one blast. She was unhurt and is safe but a number of people have been reported injured close to her procession in Karachi.

Ms Bhutto was in a truck on her way to a rally near the tomb of Mohammad Ali Jinnah, the founder of Pakistan, when the attacks happened.

The vehicle had just passed when the bombs went off, and there is speculation that at least one of the attacks was a car blast.

Ms Bhutto was evacuated from the truck and it is not known whether she will attend the planned rally.

Hundreds of thousands of people had lined the route - and militants linked to al Qaeda, angered by her support for the US war on terrorism, had threatened to assassinate her.

Earlier, she pledged to fight for democracy as she ended her eight-year exile amid chaotic scenes at the airport.”

better yet, let’s hope everyone wakes up to realize American fighter jets are needed to help get the job done as well as American special forces...

Reid, Pelosi, and Murtha are greatly saddened at the failure.
