Mahar-Almani feud leaves 4 dead
Four people including a boy were killed in armed clashes between the Mahar and Almani tribes on Thursday. The two tribes are in bad blood since Shaista Almani and Balkh Sher Mahar married of their own free will. The dead were identified as Jaffer Mahar, Bux Mahar, the cousin of former chief minister Ali Muhammad Khan Mahar and Muhammad Murad Mahar. The clashes also claimed an eight-year-old boy's life.

And Pakistan is more "Westernized" than Afghanistan and Iraq.

But, hey, no worries. I'm told that once there are free elections throughout the world, democracy will work its magic spell and tribal loyalties will vanish. I can hardly wait for the magic happen.
