#1 " Karachi, a city of 18 million people, which contributes 42 percent of Pakistain's GDP, is rife with murder, kidnappings and has been plagued with sectarian, ethnic, and political violence for years."

It has something to do with the amount of Peace in the Religion of Peace ( you may have already noticed.)
Moslem Values...that sort of thing.

And , hey, what is 5 dead Moslems. Are we short of Moslems. I mean, really. Wake me up when there are some real numbers.

#3 Actually, it's "I could care less."

A bit pedantic? Yes. And I sort-of apologize.

But if one is going to post in the same thread as our resident Hemingway-in-a-flaming-tutu, one really should try to raise the quality level of the overall commentary.

#4 Hummm.....
Where I come from it's a longer form.

As in "I find it difficult to care any less about your situation". *

So I think correctly it would be, "I couldn't care less". "I could care less" implies an certain amount of caring, which I don't think the statement is trying to convey.

#5 Ah, yes - you and James are right.

I still maintain right-ness about Hemingway-in-a-flaming-tutu, though.
