Masood Hasan The MQM has managed to, and will continue to, stay in the political mainstream because its vote bank is fixed and customary – a vote bank that happens to be set in the largest...

to Hillary and Barack some time ago. With a government willing to use U.S. drone technology against its own people, bomb various parts of its country when directed to, and allow a revolving-door policy for American officials, it's no wonder Washington is hell bent on supporting the disastrous Zardari government. from Fatima Bhutto: The Daily Beast: Hillary, Go Home ~~~~~~~~~~~

these days, and their veracity is hard to gauge. No one knows what is real anymore in this country that seems hell-bent on self-destruction. In fact, our chief industry now seems to be the manufacture of fear, and everyone's on the assembly line.
