“This is a very tragic affair for the whole family, the tribe and the people of the whole region,” Shahid Bugti said from his father-in-law’s family house in Quetta. “We consider him a martyr. He led a very graceful life and he had a graceful death, going out while fighting for his people’s rights.”

Damn, the place is crawling with Bugtis.
Rind Arabs who speaky Urdû.

#2 Local political groups said Bugti’s death had sparked a “never-ending war.”

A condition indistinguishable from the previous state of Pakistan.

#5 Not my man Akbar! What's the world coming to when a simple minded Nawab can't be remembered with bombs, burning, and looting?
Now who will fill in for Foster Brooks on Bollywood Squares?

#6 Waiting for the Bugti outdoor furnishings to turn up on the Antiques Road Show, Karachi Edition. Save those "Whack a Bugti" games as investments.

#8 I'm wondering who will inherit the title of Nawab and whether he will lead the insurgency.

The marri tribe also lost the son of their Nawab in the raid and they will also be looking for revenge.
