I get sick of drib-drabs of diarrhea from the shit War Dailies:
"Police Officials Suspended in Pakistan Over Battle With Lawyers" by SALMAN MASOOD
ISLAMABAD, Pakistan, Oct. 1 — On Saturday, dozens of lawyers were beaten as they protested a bid for re-election by the president, Gen. Pervez Musharraf. Riot police officers used batons and tear gas against journalists and the lawyers, who were chased into the Supreme Court building. The lawyers were protesting the legality of General Musharraf’s re-election effort.
Also on Monday, a woman detonated explosives hidden under her burqa at a police checkpoint in the troubled town of Bannu in the northwestern region, killing herself and 14 others in what appeared to be Pakistan’s first suicide attack by a woman, The Associated Press reported.
The bomber was in a rickshaw when it was stopped by the police at a checkpoint, said Ameer Hamza Mahsud, the local police chief. Investigators determined that the bomber was a woman who wore a head-to-toe burqa veil, Mr. Mahsud told The A.P."
[Gee, am I getting tired of the lies!
I don't believe this "female-suicider" story at all, and never will!
Not coming from the Zionist-controlled, Muslim-hating press I won't!
More from the A.P. pick-up (Times knows the info, so WTF?):
"Female suicide bomber kills 14 in Pakistan; Riding rickshaw, she hid explosives underneath burqa" by Riaz Khan/Associated Press October 2, 2007
PESHAWAR, Pakistan - A woman detonated explosives hidden under her burqa at a police checkpoint yesterday, killing herself and 14 others in what appeared to be Pakistan's first female suicide attack, officials said.
The blast in the troubled town of Bannu underscored the growing Islamic militant threat in Pakistan, five days before General Pervez Musharraf, a US ally, seeks reelection as president.
Militants attacked a security post in the same northwestern region later yesterday and 24 police officers were feared captured, officials said.
[WTF is going on up there? Pakistan's army impotent or what?
Is this why we never get any reports from up there -- unless it's an "Al-CIA-Duh" suicider?
Or are these troops just DEFECTING?]
The suicide bomber was in a rickshaw when it was pulled over by police at a checkpoint in Bannu, said Ameer Hamza Mahsud, the local police chief.
Investigators determined that it was a suicide attack and that the bomber was a woman who wore the head-to-toe burqa veil common in Pakistan's northwest and in neighboring Afghanistan, Mahsud told The Associated Press.
There was no claim of responsibility. Forensic experts would examine the attacker's dismembered body for clues to her identity, Mahsud said.
However, he said it was possible that the bomber came from the nearby tribal belt along the Afghan frontier, where militants affiliated with the Taliban and Al Qaeda have seized considerable control.
While there have been reports of women being trained to carry out suicide bombings in Pakistan, yesterday's blast appeared to be the first confirmation of such an attack in either Pakistan or Afghanistan.
[Right, in the Zionist press, anyway. Pfffffttttt!!!!!]
An Army spokesman, Major General Waheed Arshad, said the dead included four police officers and 11 other people, among them the bomber.
Mahsud said many of the casualties had been crowded around a nearby bus stop.
Some 150 militants attacked the Richi Fort security post west of Bannu last night with rockets and gunfire, according to an intelligence official.
[Huh? What? New York Times not tell? Hanh? Why?]
The official, who was not authorized to speak publicly, said the insurgents overran the post and captured 24 paramilitary police officers.
Arshad confirmed the attack but said he had no confirmation that anyone was captured.
Bannu is near the North Waziristan tribal region, about 110 miles south of Peshawar.
In recent months, militants have staged almost daily attacks on security forces in North Waziristan and surrounding areas.
[Huh? I hardly ever get reports; instead, I get Britney Spears!]
A wave of violence including suicide attacks in otherwise peaceful parts of Pakistan have fanned concern here that the country is sacrificing its stability at the behest of Washington.
[STINKS of black-ops!]
That debate has tarnished the standing of Musharraf but has not deterred him from seeking another five-year presidential term.
Also yesterday, the Supreme Court ordered three officials suspended after 83 people, including dozens of journalists and lawyers, were hurt when police used batons and tear gas during a weekend protest against Musharraf.
Judges watched television footage of the clashes on a screen set up in a courtroom packed with lawyers and journalists, some with bandages on their arms and heads."
Web, yesterday (which should be in my papers today, right?):
"Pakistan: Suicide bomber kills 15 in Pakistan" by Reuters October 1, 2007
ISLAMABAD - A suicide bomber wearing a woman's burqa set off explosives in the northwestern Pakistani town of Bannu on Monday killing up to 15 people, including four policemen, security officials said.
The blast was the latest in a wave of attacks, most in the northwest of the country near the border with Afghanistan, blamed on Islamist militants based in tribal areas on the Afghan border.
Military spokesman Major-General Waheed Arshad said 11 civilians and four policemen had been killed in the suicide blast in the town, which is in North West Frontier Province.
An Interior Ministry spokesman said 11 people -- four of them policemen -- had been killed.
"A burqa-clad bomber -- either it was a woman or a man in a burqa -- set off explosives when police approached," said ministry spokesman Javed Iqbal Cheema.
[My Zionist-controlled war papers said it was a woman, even if they didn't know yet?]
A police official said the blast went off near a bus stand and 19 people were also wounded."
