More than dozen killed in Pakistan protests over anti-Islam video But as tragic as it was in Benghazi, and today in Pakistan, where more than a dozen Pakistanis were killed and over 200 injured, the number of demonstrators has been small — except in Beirut and Khartoum, where there were about 10,000 each. As an old South Asia hands told me in Pakistan and India years ago: “You don’t have a demonstration until you have at least 100,000, or a million people, in the streets.” The demonstrations should be taken in perspective. When former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto returned to Karachi on Oct. 19, 2007, there were, according to the BBC, over 200,000 people surrounding her caravan. On Sept. 16, “hundreds” of young men, according to Pakistani officials, attacked the U.S. Consulate in Karachi. They were led, according to reports, by Jamaat Islami (The Islamic Party). The attacks in Islamabad were led, according to reports, by Jamiat Ulema-a-Islam (Party of Islamic clerics), both prominent fundamentalist political religious parties tied to the Taliban in Afghanistan. While most Muslim around the world are surely hurt by the trailer, very few are so angry at the U.S. that they are demonstrating and killing fellow Muslims. In Pakistan, demonstrators attacked a Pakistani Press Club in Wari, a small city near the Afghan border, injuring Pakistani journalists. Demonstrators killed a Pakistani journalist in Peshawar. On Sept. 20, in Mogadishu, Somalia, according to National Union of Somali Journalists, two suicide bombers killed three Somali journalists and wounded four others. There have been very few demonstrations in India, the second largest Muslim nation in the world. Why? India is a democracy where people can vent their frustrations at the ballot box. Islam means submission to God. Democracy means rules of man. Al Qaeda and the Taliban, and other fundamentalist organizations, call democracy a western religion. The Islamists demonstrating are angry not just at America, but at modernity, at the secular world, and at democracy. They are few in number.

(AP) BEIRUT – A Syrian military helicopter clipped the tail of a Syrian passenger jet with 200 people aboard in mid-air Thursday, but the larger aircraft landed safely and no one aboard was hurt, Syria’s state TV said. The helicopter crashed near the capital of Damascus, though it was not clear if there were any casualties in that crash or what had led the two aircraft to touch in mid-air. More in After the Arab Spring The close call came at a time when Syria is embroiled in a civil war between the supporters of President Bashar Assad and those trying to topple him. The 18-month rebellion has claimed the lives of more than 23,000 people, according to activists, and Syria has descended into chaos.

SH: I am putting the finishing touches to my next psychological thriller, “Kind of Cruel,” and working on an outline for a TV series. In my head, I am also working on ideas for a self-help/popular psychology book for embarrassed British people, called ‘How to protect your physical and psychological boundaries without looking like an idiot in public’. JG: What surprised you the most during the writing process? SH: Two things really surprised me while I was writing “The Cradle in the Grave.” After all the research I did into the real-life cases of Clark, Cannings and Patel, I ended up none the wiser as to their respective guilt or innocence. I wasn’t even able to make a guess, in any of the three cases. There was plenty of evidence to support whatever story a person might want to tell. That was a little scary. Also, I found that I had sympathy for everyone involved. Doctors who send innocent women to prison for the murders of their babies don’t do it because they’re evil. They do it mistakenly, because they genuinely want to protect and defend children. And women who smother their babies don’t do it because they’re wicked, but rather because they’re desperate and ill. If society was more compassionate and less harshly judgmental, more people could admit to the mistakes they’d made and there would be fewer unsolved mysteries. JG: What would you be doing if you weren’t a writer? SH: I would either be a country singer in the style of Emmylou Harris or Nanci Griffith, or else I would be a psychotherapist – a bossy one, who would get cross if patients didn’t promise to leave their unsuitable partners and tell their controlling parents to get stuffed immediately.

We are at the beginning now, we can’t say if she has rights.” The church fresco in the town of Borja was for decades a little-known piece of religious art by a minor Spanish artist

(CBS/AP) MADRID – The lawyers for 해적맞고 an elderly Spanish woman who made global headlines when she botched the restoration of a fresco of Jesus Christ say she has no interest in a cut of the tourism windfall her work has brought her northeastern Spanish town. But the attorneys are gearing up to put a stop to potential copyright violations of what she created – even though she had not set out to create anything at all. “We want to put some order to this anarchy,” said Antonio Val Carreras Rivera, one of her lawyers. “You do this little by little under legality, and our job is to coordinate to prevent third parties from profiting. We are at the beginning now, we can’t say if she has rights.” The church fresco in the town of Borja was for decades a little-known piece of religious art by a minor Spanish artist. Following the disastrous touch-up, revealed in August, it has found a new fate as a global icon – used to sell products around the world. The fresco depicts Christ with a crown of thorns before crucifixion, in a style style known as “Ecce Homo” (Behold the Man). It stood in peaceful obscurity in the Misericordia Sanctuary since its creation in 1930 – until Gimenez, a longtime devotee of the work, decided it needed to be rescued from flaking caused...
