    Pakistanis jubilant over Musharraf's resignation

    Lawyers, who have spearheaded an anti-Musharraf campaign since he tried to sack the chief justice last year, stormed out of courts in the southeastern city of Multan on hearing of Musharraf's resignation, shouting "Down with the American stooge."

    Now we wait for a new wave of Terrorism supported by the soon to come, New Pakistan anti west government.

    Maybe we should have been building ties with the democratically elected politicians, and backing their judiciary rather than than the military dictator ...

    And let's be fair, anti-Americanism is pretty rife in any country in the world you care to visit.

        There's plenty of American Bashing going on here. Remember Tone was known as the "American Poodle"(sic).

        Recall that Bush wanted Mush. gone in November - replaced by someone hand-picked by Bhutto. Now if her widower becomes president..then really we all wonder if it was he who had her shot.

At least six bombers attacked the base, with three detonating their vests and up to 13 militants killed. There were no reports of American casualties.

              “A most intense terrorist mass suicide operation was thwarted,” the Afghan defence ministry said in a statement.

              Across the border in Peshawar, capital of Pakistan's North-West Frontier Province, at least 23 people were killed when a suicide bomber struck a hospital in the city. The dead included civilians and policemen, with up to 35 wounded, according to local police.

              The blast is believed to having targeted Shia Muslims, as part of a chain of sectarian attacks in the region. A Shia man shot earlier in the day had been taken to the hospital, where he died of his
