Pakistan, our friend and ally in the "war on terrorism" and a country we have paid billions in jizya to, now has it's own internal revolution brewing. The "yout" as Joe Pesci says seem to be in a snit, and are demanding the ouster of Western influence and a return to good old Islam.
The hate keeps rolling along through country after country soon the caliphate will coalesce and the wonder at how quickly it happened will be replaced with fear and confusion as we blindly tell ourselves it has nothing to do with Islam.

It was the third consecutive week that Youth 4 Change had organised a protest “against the democratic system and the American hegemony in Pakistan”. The protesters chanted slogans in support of Islam. They held placards and banners denouncing America and in support of Dr Afia Siddiqui, and in support for the protests in Cairo at Tahrir (Liberty) Square.
The protesters demanded the closure of all US embassies and consulates in Pakistan, an end to the war in Afghanistan, that Raymond Davis to be tried under Islamic law, that Dr Siddiqui be released, and that the armed forces of Pakistan obey Allah and the Holy Prophet (pbuh) and unite the Muslim Ummah under one caliph.
Junaid Khan, an engineering student at the National University of Science and Technology, said the protest was meant to push for change. “In Pakistan, democracy and dictatorship have been tried and failed. Now it is time to bring in an Islamic system. That is the only way for Pakistan to progress,” he said.
Islam replacing democracy, now how does that work? Oh yes; stonings, amputations, death for apostasy and shirk(giving Allah companions), rape within marriage and child weddings. Got it.
