After six volunteer health-care workers were shot dead while administering polio vaccines, Pakistan has suspended its anti-polio drive in the province of Sindh until the safety of workers can be assured. The Taliban have not claimed responsibility for the killings, although they have been know to oppose such immunization programs in the past.

Bilejones: Ignorance is such a terrible thing to waste - so you came here to share yours with us.
Islam has tortured and murdered more people over the last 1,400 years than any other form of despotic human governance.
You are welcome to go live in an Islamic country if you think that Islam is so great!
