A roar of dissent in Pakistan

They waved Taliban flags, clobbered an effigy of George Bush and vowed death to all Americans. It felt like Afghanistan. In fact, Tuesday's demonstration was in Pakistan, the United States' ostensible ally in the hunt for Osama bin Laden, who is accused by the Bush administration of masterminding the Sept. 11 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. The thousands of people who took to the streets here, urged on by a radical mullah, wanted to show the fragility of Pakistan's official support for the United States. "America murda abad! America murda abad!" they chanted - roughly, "We hate America! We hate America!"

Thatcher condemns Muslim leaders' response to terror attacks

"The people who brought down those towers were Muslims and Muslims must stand up and say that is not the way of Islam," Lady Thatcher told the paper. "Passengers on those planes were told that they were going to die and there were children on board. They must say that is disgraceful. I have not heard enough condemnation from Muslim priests."
