What a typically Amero-centric thing to say. So many US citizens think the world revolves around the US and countrys like Pakistan don't figure much in the big picture.
1. I don't think it was Amero-centric, it was a statement of fact.
2. Yes, many citizens do think the world revolves around the US, but that attitude would not be so prevalent if foreigners didn't treat us as it did. EVERY foreigner I've ever encountered has a very strong impression of President Bush (the vast majority strongly against), while many of those same foreigners can't seem to name key memberss of THEIR OWN NATION'S GOVERNMENT (present company, obviously, excluded). When people march in the streets, they don't post the names of Aussie pols or New Zealanders, it's usually the US President or a prominent member of the cabinet that is singled out.
Bhutto's death was a horrible, horrible occurence and will have repurcussions far beyond the borders of Pakistan. Of that, I feel, there is obviously little doubt. But while we in the United States may see the serious implications of the death of someone like Bhutto, we will not "miss" her in the same sense as her countrymen, many of whom worked hard for her return from exile.
