Pakistan seems to be getting less stable every day.
Every new peace deal just brings more violence.
Their policy of appeasement isn't working.

Hope they have better security at the missile sites..

Jeez...what a story...but I have a question...

The ruling cricket body in Canada said there are no immediate plans to withdraw eight Canadian cricketers training in Sri Lanka.

"Our coaches indicated that based on the security that has been provided to us, we should not have any major concerns about the players at the moment because of the location," Cricket Canada secretary Calvin Clarke said from Toronto.

Why would we consider pulling our players out when they're not even in the country where the attack occurred?
