The sun is up by now in Pakistan. I wonder what this day will bring?

I felt a real gut thing when I read on CNN this morning about Bhutto's death. I have a feeling the shit's gonna hit the fan.

1. I imagine...

...the ruling party will behave very much the same way our "dear leader's" party did on 9/11.

They will take advantage of this "chaos" to implement "measures to protect the safety" of the Pakistani people.

8. The symbiotic relationship

between the "terrorists" (whoever they may be) and the ruling parties is the same all over the world. Each side uses the other to thrive. Most of the rest of us ordinary human beings are outside of this weird and dangerous dance that they have going on, and yet we all suffer the consequences. It just doesn't seem right. When will the good and peaceful people of the world triumph? I've been waiting for it all my life.

The sun is up there, but the day hasn't really started yet. I guess the rioting died off just before dawn, when the cold drove people inside.

3. Since the M$M is spending all the time on it, one has to wonder.

4. It should hit the fan, but when a dictator is in charge with American dollars behind him, it won't.

The weasels on Wall Street and in London's financial markets will insist that their profits be protected.

6. I believe this will be beyond any spin.

The M$M will have to broadcast the images coming our way. It will not be pretty.
