What a shame for Pakistan. They lose two games in a row , get kicked out of the World Cup, and now find themselves unofficial suspects in a murder case! I bet they are burning the American flag and effigies of Bush.

Remember some time ago when a Columbian soccer player was shot dead after scoring a "own goal" and causing a loss in the World Cup competition. It makes our U.S. sports fanatics look positively blase in comparison. We had a guy, a Bear fan, legally change his name to Peyton Manning after losing a bet.

Of course, there's the Cubs' fans who might commit murder if some goober cost 'em the World Series,but who could blame 'em ; that would be justifiable homicide.

Take note, folks....
This is PAKISTAN again....
Showing additional evidence of being the most fanatical Muslims -- in EVERY aspect of their lives.....

Try to take notice of the country of origin for many if not most of the lunatics committing the most savage, barbaric Islamic "acting out"..both in their country and their host countries.

To think of these "Death to America" at every opportunity rioters -- as ALLIES, is laughable..

At most - they should be regarded as unindicted co-conspirators in murder and mayhem..

Semper Fi

The impression is that many of the players, like the male-dominated society they come from, are a law unto themselves with allegiance only to Islam and their family. That could be why democracy has failed in Pakistan and the reason military dictatorships seem to be the only effective form of government.

Pretty much nails it.

Interesting that on aussie TV it was Younis Khan who was quoted as the last man to see the victim alive.

In urdu, Pakistan means "Land of the Pure,"

I thought the "Paki" in Pakistan was made up from the initials of different ethnic groups.
