#3 The hotel is famous for its variety of food and mostly Afghan nationals are the frequent visitors of the hotel.

Hey, when you specialize in sheep eye-balls and goat stomachs ala Pushtan, someone is going to get a bad meal.

#6 Once again, enquiring minds want to know exactly when Pakistan's devout legions of "pure" jihadis will put out a death fatwa against renowned Islamic scholar, Yusuf Qaradawi, for issuing edicts that absolve and sanctify bomb vest killers. The sharp increase in this sort of attack can be traced directly to his pronouncements.

It was all well and fine just so long as these vicious murderers directed their foul attacks against Jews or the West. Now that truck bombs, car bombs and vest bombers are striking against fellow Muslim targets, suddenly they've lost their taste for such torrents of bloodshed.

Most hilarious ironic of all is that, due to Israel's fence and improved Western security measures, internecine fighting amongst Islamic sects now enjoys the vast majority of this type of hideous slaughter. As always, it couldn't happen to a nicer bunch. How fitting that a hyper-violent creed should find one of its most potent and lethal weapons turned against itself by its own followers.
