#1 He also upset former premier Benazir Bhutto when he called her husband a son of a camel wallah.

That must have gone down well over tea

#2 President General Pervez Musharraf has been singularly unsuccessful at finding Osama bin Laden in his cave on the Afghan-Pakistan border

Is Osama in the habit of 'taking the mountain air' outdoors in his Barca-lounger?

#3 An interesting is that the "governement in exile of Balochistan demands all Urdu and Punjabi speaking Muslims to leave Balochistan or else... and adds that non-Muslims can remain. Of course this so called governemnt in exile can be a single guy in a basement but perhaps, perhaps it is a crack in Islam's building. One that we should try to enlarge along similar cracks in Iran or North Africa. The day a Muslim country rejects Islam the whole buildiong will crumble (but we all know how Muslms deal with dissidents and you can count on Jihadists travelling to that country in order to prevent it).

#7 perhaps it is a crack in Islam's building

The Balochis have seen, first hand, what an "islamic welfare state" is all about ... an excuse for outsiders to take their land and natural resources.. colonization by fellow muslims - Punjabis etc.

They no longer buy the brotherhood argument. No ummah for many of them.
