Chances are this poor woman lost a relative or two in the PPP rampage following Bhutto's assassination. I don't know a single Pakistani who would shed a tear for any of their politicians.

In-depth cultural understanding is the only basis on which to effect change. Not moralising. I know enough about Pakistan to know that the sectarianism there is an extremely potent social force.
