KARACHI, Pakistan Hundreds of youths set fire to a Pizza Hut restaurant, two gas stations and a dozen vehicles in Pakistan's biggest city, Karachi, after Saturday's funeral for an Islamic Shiite cleric killed in a suicide attack.
Rioters rampaged through a busy commercial area a day after a suicide bomber killed cleric Allama Hassan Turabi, his cousin and a police guard.
Police fired shots in the air, swung batons and used tear gas to control the crowd.
Hours earlier, Turabi was buried at a city cemetery after more than 8,000 people, beating their chests with their hands as a sign of grief, packed the city streets for his funeral.
Most of the crowd dispersed peacefully after the ceremony, but a gang of youths damaged shops and torched a Pizza Hut, two state-owned gas stations and several vehicles, apparently expressing general anger at the U.S. and Pakistani governments.

Maybe Ali ordered a plain hand tossed goat cheese, but got a three topping with Canadian Bacon, Italian Sausage, and Pepperoni.
Serves that damn Sunni Pizza Hut right for their crime.....
When we observe the Islamic-dominated countries, it is difficult to imagine when many/most of them will be ready for civilization, never mind (successful) democracy. Sure, every country in the world has "social problems" but in few other places is there such widespread social depravity and dementia as in the Islamic countries. Insane rioting every time something bad happens, wild assaults on scapegoats that have nothing to do with the problem at hand, depraved support for mass terrorism, fanatical hatred of the Jews, etc. etc. etc. I find it hard to believe that much of the Islamic world is really part of the human race, but they keep telling us they are our spiritual superiors.
These Islamists can't stand the world, can't stand each other, can't stand the U.S., can't stand Israel, can't stand [word picked at random]...
A greasy place like that would probably burn for hours. Yech!
UTAH PIZZ
or bacon
Heck, I would have the place on fire because their food sucks.
But to each his own.
At last, the mastermind of these fast-food torchings is revealed.
Democracy's a b*tch. Thank goodness our Founding Fathers created a Constitutional republic instead.
LOL!
Turabi was a nasty piece of goods who has been involved with Kashmir separatists for nearly two decades. And if Indian intelligence got him I say, good on you guys.
Too much pepperoni!;)
Democracy: two wolves and a lamb deciding what's for dinner.
Liberty: a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.
They were running a pork lover's special.
They use the table cloths for headdresses.
"a gang of youths"
Those angry yutes again. Let me guess, they were 18 year old blond Swedish boys, or wild rambunctious Hungarian kids.
Yawn. Maybe they were angry that Achmed accidentally threw Canadian bacon on their pizzas?
