- cutekelvins, on 03/15/2008, -3/+8Domestic terrorism yeah. But they started producing lots of domestic terrorists since 1989.
- sanman, on 03/15/2008, -2/+3Nah, even farther -- go back to 1948

- neiltc13, on 03/15/2008, -13/+4What about the real casualties? Wounded Americans, but what nationality were the dead?
Huh?- v1c1ous, on 03/15/2008, -0/+11it says turkish woman killed right in the article
- EllimistX, on 03/15/2008, -2/+5Yup, the only reason we hear about this is because Americans were there... When will we start valuing all life and not just American lives?
- seldon452, on 03/15/2008, -0/+13There is some serious bad ***** going down in pakistan.
- trenchfever, on 03/15/2008, -1/+1Very insightful comment right there. Here.. have a unicode pointy finger ☝.
- livejamie, on 03/15/2008, -6/+4When I saw the headline I thought "there's a rock band called 'blast?'"
- Dantetheinferno, on 03/15/2008, -0/+1I thought it was an grammatically incorrect sentence, till the 2 dead part, then I knew.
- NavS, on 03/15/2008, -3/+2That was a weird title.

- Bipedal, on 03/15/2008, -9/+2Damn, this new band "Blast" must really suck.
- sfacets, on 03/15/2008, -8/+4Too many of them anyway. Americans.
- Mikejoneswho5, on 03/15/2008, -5/+3I siad... NO PORK AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
- empirefalling, on 03/15/2008, -8/+9The blame can only be deposited upon the United States. It’s invasion and defeat in Afghanistan and Iraq, it’s attempted genocide and treatment of the followers of Islam, the 2,750,000 deaths of innocent Muslim men, women and children world wide since 2003...anger for the West and Americans in particular run very high in the Middle East.
- rlh1, on 03/15/2008, -7/+62,750,000 Muslim deaths due to the US ---- where do you get your figures.
- hawkspur, on 03/15/2008, -2/+1Google it.
- mancat, on 03/16/2008, -1/+1Google Lochness Monster
- hawkspur, on 03/15/2008, -2/+1Google it.
- sanman, on 03/15/2008, -5/+6Muslims haven't exactly been endearing themselves to the world for the past 1400 years either
- thepeacemaker, on 03/16/2008, -2/+5Muslim countries don't have military bases in Western countries. Muslim governments haven't been installing dictators in Western countries for the past century. Muslim companies haven't been exploiting Western resources at the expense of the local people. If Muslims are so bad, why don't American citizens just call up their congress members and have troops recalled from Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Iraq, UAE, etc etc and keep them in their own country where they belong like everyone else does.
- RayG68, on 03/17/2008, -0/+1Yes, at least 1 million murdered in Iraq because of the occupation. sanman: 1400 years is only about 3/4 of Christianity's 2000 years of terror, and it is no worse OR better than Christianity. And today the American empire is the biggest reactionary in the world, the greatest cause of human suffering, and the main reason Islamic fundamentalism exists and grows.

- airmann90, on 03/15/2008, -1/+3Wow, 3 clicks on that picture to take me to a picture of the exact same ***** size.
- mkokes, on 03/15/2008, -4/+4So someone bombed something in the middle east? Hmm today must be any other day of the week then I guess.
- 140Suffolk, on 03/16/2008, -0/+2Pakistan is not the Middle East. Pakistanis are not Arabs either, fyi.
- Caviarmy, on 03/15/2008, -3/+1The first thing I thought of was "Blast!"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lGkhiiM-KRg - Shaman760, on 03/15/2008, -2/+2Maybe they served a Wendy's Spicy chicken sandwich.
- Groovemaster, on 03/15/2008, -4/+5The people of Pakistan: "*****. Looks like Al CIAda has us in their scope now. Guess we're next on the list to get 'liberated' by the USA."
- avnerlevit, on 03/15/2008, -1/+7Its hardly surprising. I mean Pakistan is undoubtedly the breeding ground for terrorists in the form of the radical madrassas and the radical mosques fueling hatred against the world on pointless grounds- using centuries old Islamic scripts to propel what they think is a solution to their "problem"..in a world where violence is condemned.....(why condemned? well..we're a little more ***** civilized than we were centuries ago).
All the terrorists fat cats i.e. UBL are in Pakistan- The indians have been crying that for years.. the CIA acknowledges...
Musharraf is split in between pleasing the West and at the same time trying to control the dangerous and growing Islamic extremism in Pakistan.
Bombs like this will continue to happen...until, i dont know..... - trenchfever, on 03/15/2008, -5/+7Seriously jizzlam is starting to stink pretty bad. Yeah yeah.. "religion of peace.. dirka dirka sherpa jehad".
- guria89, on 03/16/2008, -3/+2whats this got to do with islam EH? was ur MAMA in that ***** blast??why always have a go on islam..u westerners have nothing better to do
- trenchfever, on 03/16/2008, -0/+1Because jizzlam has nothing better to do than label others as infidels and what not. Also muhammed was a pedophile child *****. No wonder mullahs ***** little boys in madrassas across the islamic world. Were you a victim too?
- guria89, on 03/16/2008, -3/+2whats this got to do with islam EH? was ur MAMA in that ***** blast??why always have a go on islam..u westerners have nothing better to do
- mudgod, on 03/15/2008, -0/+4The issue primarily is that our other great ally Saudi Arabia has been sending billions of dollars in Pakistan to fund all these Madrasa's and training camps.
Until that money is cut off and alternatives are available not much progress will be made regardless of what military measures are taken in Pakistan - NighthawkBlack, on 03/15/2008, -1/+0False Flag.
- dkern, on 03/17/2008, -0/+1FBI agents injured in a Pakistan blast. Probably planting bombs, when..... ooops!
Its funny you can point it out- and still the dumb ***** won't believe it!

- metric7, on 03/15/2008, -1/+4Why would any Americans be there? ***** place.
- MonsieurShak, on 03/15/2008, -2/+4My parents are from Pakistan so whenever news like this hits, my family starts to worry. Hopefully the country can bring themselves out of this with the new government coming soon. My hopes aren't too high though.
- NighthawkBlack, on 03/15/2008, -0/+3Sad that we are still propping up Musharraf seven years later; sadder still most people have forgotten about this whole fiasco:
Asia Times:
"If the 9-11 Commission is really looking for a smoking gun, it should look no further than at Lieutenant-General Mahmoud Ahmad, the director of the Pakistani Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) at the time.
In early October 2001, Indian intelligence learned that Mahmoud had ordered flamboyant Saeed Sheikh - the convicted mastermind of the kidnapping and killing of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl - to wire US$100,000 from Dubai to one of hijacker Mohamed Atta's two bank accounts in Florida.
A juicy direct connection was also established between Mahmoud and Republican Congressman Porter Gross and Democratic Senator Bob Graham. They were all in Washington together discussing Osama bin Laden over breakfast when the attacks of September 11, 2001, happened.
Mahmoud's involvement in September 11 might be dismissed as only Indian propaganda. But Indian intelligence swears by it, and the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has confirmed the whole story: Indian intelligence even supplied Saeed's cellular-phone numbers. Nobody has bothered to check what really happened. The 9-11 Commission should pose very specific questions about it to FBI director Robert Mueller when he testifies this month.
In December 2002, Graham said he was "surprised at the evidence that there were foreign governments involved in facilitating the activities of at least some of the [September 11] terrorists in the United States ... It will become public at some point when it's turned over to the archives, but that's 20 or 30 years from now." He could not but be referring to Pakistan and Mahmoud. If Mahmoud was really involved in September 11, this means the Pakistani ISI -"the state within the state" - knew all about it. And if the intelligence elite in Pakistan knew it, an intelligence elite in Saudi Arabia knew it, as well as an intelligence elite in the US."
Mahmoud was forced to retire and go into hiding while the US continued to praise Pakistan and its ISI as our powerful ally in the "war on terror'. "We'll GET those Al-Qaeda for you, Mr. Bush, don't you worry!"
The same people that assure us a sunroof lever killed Bhutto. (who wasn't a saint herself but still...)
What a sick ***** joke.
- Mrdudeperson, on 03/16/2008, -4/+1Seriously, there has been a bomb going off in the middle east at least once a week for the past decade at least.
- texas85, on 03/16/2008, -0/+5Hello Miss South Carolina? Pakistan is in South Asia not Middle east.
- gplpark92, on 03/16/2008, -1/+1big surprise
no im not being racist, in fact, my family is from near there - lolo2007, on 06/17/2008, -0/+0The issue primarily is that our other great ally Saudi Arabia has been sending billions of dollars in Pakistan to fund all these Madrasa's and training camps.
