The Way of the World
Riots following the assassination of Benazir Bhutto killed at least an additional couple of dozen people in Pakistan today, as Bhutto was buried and the Pakistani government claimed that she hit her head and that some Talibani guy did it and, whatever, the world kind of sucks tonight and I needed to see something semi-heartwarming. After the jump, a picture of ordinary Pakistanis peacefully making their way to pay their respects at Bhutto's funeral, because tonight the news will be all riots and death and world politics and that isn't the whole truth, either.
I don't know why this struck me, but it did.
