CSI: Pakistan

Watching the news, the pictures, the videos, and the abundance of

speculation and conspiracy theories, it makes me wonder whether all of

this controversy could have been avoided had there been a thorough and

professional investigation undertaken after Benazir Bhutto's tragic

assassination? Then I realize it is too much to ask of the people

involved. Here are some of my reasons why:

Bilawal Bhutto Zardari and Friend in Devil Costumes

“We’re ready to bring hell on earth. . . waaahahahahahah.”

    Pakistani-American Franchisee Joins Bid to Acquire Papa John's Pizza

    A Pakistan-American franchisee has joined a Qatari-backed investor group's bid to buy out the US-based Papa John's Pizza restaurants chain.
