Pakistan is a failed state with a government full of supporters of jihad terror.

Sharia Pakistan: Police administer Qur’anic punishment, hack off hands of thieves
“Police disputed their version of the story, telling Reuters the men had cut their own hands with razor blades in a suicide attempt.” Yeah, sure, pull my other leg.

Interfaith outreach in Pakistan: Four Christians arrested for “distributing religious materials”
Shhhh! Do not speak of this! “Talk about extreme, militant Islamists and the atrocities that they have perpetrated globally might undercut the positive achievements that we Catholics have attained in our inter-religious dialogue with devout Muslims.” — Robert McManus, Roman Catholic Bishop of Worcester, Massachusetts, February 8, 2013.

Aasia Bibi: A life hanging in the balance by Shahid Khan Imagine a life in a solitary confinement, spending years in a dark dungeon, living with ceaseless agony, torture, uncertainty.

Pakistan: Islamic jihadists murder seven in three separate blasts
Note yet again the lack of any acting agent in the PTI report: whenever Islamic jihadists are the perpetrators, the mainstream media does its best to obscure that fact by removing all mention of who actually did the deed. And so we hear that seven were killed in blasts, but not who set them off. […]
