30 Die in Bombing at Funeral in Pakistan

What a sad happening! A suicide bomber blew himself up at a funeral for a slain Shiite leader in northwest Pakistan. Thirty people were killed and more than 60 were wounded. Three other people were killed sectarian rioting sparked by the attack. Although no one claimed responsibility, the blast bore the hallmarks of Sunni extremists blamed for a string of other bloody strikes against Pakistan's Shiite minority in recent months.
