ISLAMABAD (Reuters) - Police detained hundreds of Pakistani opposition figures and lawyers on Sunday as military ruler President Pervez Musharraf tried to stifle the outcry over the imposition of emergency powers.

Note from the Owner: Once again unrest and violence is growing in a nation dominated by Islam. Musharraf may be a dictator but at least he was an ally of ours against the fanatic Islamic militants. If he falls and Islamic "Clerics" take control of this government we will have Nukes in the hands of these lunatics that have no respect for human life.
