Horrible News

Benazir Bhutto, former prime minister of Pakistan, has been murdered. May Allah grant her and the country she loved so much peace.

What’s especially disgusting about this news is that, in many outlets, it’s being accompanied by an assessment of the price of goods, stocks, currency, or oil. A woman has been murdered, and all anyone cares about is the impact on money. Estaghfirallah.

Updates: The New York Times writes a nasty obituary about her: “…the dance of veils she has deftly performed…” Really?
