Muslim Discrimination in Pakistan (as usual...)

Submitted by Dinesh Patel (United States), Feb 27, 2006 at 13:15

Religious tensions still rising:

"soldiers of the Pakistan's paramilitary force stand guard outside the Catholic church in Lahore, Pakistan after an incident of church bombing in Sukkar, last Monday"

Chrisitians only represent less than 3 percent of the population but it seems too much for muslims. When a western country does something, whether the christians there agree or don't they get it.

What I don't understand is that pakistani muslims here claim 'Islamophobia' after 9/11 and 7/7 yet their churches are being attacked on a regular basis in Pakistan even before this. Is this not Christianphobia??
