At least 30 people were killed and as many wounded in a powerful bomb explosion at a religious rally early on Thursday in the central Pakistani city of Multan, police and ambulance workers said. A rally in commemoration of assassinated extremist Sunni religious leader Azim Tariq was dispersing at 4.40 a.m. (7:40 p.m. EDT Wednesday) when the powerful explosion took place, police said. "A bomb exploded in a rally in which 30 people have been killed and almost the same number have been wounded," Abdul Rauf, an official for Edhi ambulance service, told Reuters.

#2 Pakistan can not be allowed to fall to Al Qa'ida, ever! Too many longer range nukes. A number of grude matches underway there. |

#1 If I understood correctly, when muslims say that Islam is "Religion of Peace" they mean that once all the World is Islamic, there will be World Peace---like there is Peace in Islamic countries now. |
