shropshire 0 #1 October 18, 2007 Quote Several blasts have occurred near the motorcade carrying Pakistani ex-PM Benazir Bhutto, during her triumphant homecoming after eight years in exile. Mrs Bhutto was on her way from Karachi airport to a welcome rally when the explosions took place. Initial reports said at least 15 people were injured in the blasts, but Mrs Bhutto was not thought to be among them. At least one vehicle was damaged. Unconfirmed reports said several people were killed. Hundreds of thousands of people had turned out to greet the former PM. The motorcade is now said to be at a standstill. The cause of the blasts is not clear. (.)Y(.) Chivalry is not dead; it only sleeps for want of work to do. - Jerome K Jerome Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unlikely, President Musharraf's position is strengthened by her return and her survival. Her return is to solidify a political pact with Musharraf.So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!
