December has been almost as deadly and bloody as October 2009. A brilliant closing of the year; instability and blood from the north tip of the country, to the south. The worst of the news being that 4 blasts took place within hours of each other on the 7th, 2 of them being within minutes of each other in a busy market in Lahore - the worst attack on civilians, especially in Punjab. Bravo dear killers of humanity! Bravo! *sigh*
