KARACHI, Pakistan, May 11 (UPI) -- Two hand grenades were thrown at the Saudi consulate in Pakistan's largest city of Karachi but no injuries were reported, officials said.

The Wednesday incident may have been a reaction to the killing of al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden by U.S. SEALs in Pakistan on May 2, al-Arabiya TV reported.

Saudi Arabia expelled bin Laden in 1991 and later revoked his nationality, and al-Qaida has vowed to avenge bin Laden's death.

Two men on a motorcycle reportedly threw the grenades at the heavily fortified consulate, leaving shrapnel marks on the outer wall, police said.

Security guards at the diplomatic mission opened fire on the attackers but they escaped, a police official said.

More than 4,240 people have died in bomb attacks in Pakistan in the last four years blamed on the Taliban and al-Qaida, al-Arabiya reported.

Pakistan: Grenades thrown at Saudi consulate
By ASHRAF KHAN
Associated Press


ISLAMABAD (AP) -- Pakistani and Saudi officials say men on a motorbike have thrown two grenades at the Saudi Arabian consulate in Karachi, Pakistan's largest city. The grenades exploded but no one was hurt.The motive for Wednesday's incident was unclear, and there was no claim of responsibility. It came days after Saudi-born al-Qaida chief Osama bin Laden was killed in a U.S. raid in northwest Pakistan.
Saudi Arabia, a deeply conservative Muslim nation, stripped bin Laden of citizenship and fought al-Qaida, but money from some of its citizens is believed to help bankroll the al-Qaida terrorist network.
Police official Iqbal Mahmood said one grenade landed just outside the wall and the other inside.
The Saudi deputy foreign minister, Khaled bin Saud bin Khaled, said the explosions caused minor damage.

"4,240 people have died in bomb attacks"

Osama was drinking Coke,living with four wives in safety of Abbotabad. While innocent people were killed. Even though over 4000 innocent lives were lost due to Alqaeda-Taliban Terrorists, there are still people in Pakistan who support such groups.

Pakistan=Epic centre of International Terrorism.

america=epic centre of international terrorism.

America and its Paki-Punjabi Slaves=Epic centre of Global Terrorism.

i thought you are in love with the yanks.

[Pashtun_Ultranationalist]

i thought you are in love with the yanks.

Oh lord, have you got some kind of mental issue with understanding ones view point.

I understand you got a thing for Pakis, its okay, fair enough, you maybe married to one or born from one, but I am a Pashtun, and I have a particular view point whereby using America to divide Pakistan would be beneficial.

I know the double game America played by allowing those sons of ranjit singhs ISI to station in Afghanistan, and how America played a evil role in Arming Jihadis to overthrow a secular progressive government under Najibullah. Pakistan should not be protected by Anti-Americanism, because America did not force Pakistan to join in its war on the Soviets, Pakistan actually stired the division of Afghanistan way before the Soviets or the Americans were came into being, the Pansjhir uprising is just one of many incidents where Pakistan used Minorities to dis-mantle a Pashtun Nationalist government.

I know the way America joined hands with the Arabs and Punjabis to use Afghanistan for their own political interests.

I am fully aware of that, but I am not naive as you want me to be, If America leaves, you(faye) would be enjoying your Hot curry in Aussie-land, while Afghans would be imperialised by Paki-Punjabi-ISI-Pak Army and being used as mules.

Learn to "Understand" ones "View" first before you write such childish responses.

We have no other sponsorer or provider other than America at this moment, and we must use them to get one back at Pakistan, I understand Marxists now a days are in the same camp with MMA(Mullah-Military-Alliance) but Faye you have Zero clue and Zero experience in Pashtun Affairs and what is going on.

I dont really care. Dresden is Anti-Osama, I like that, I like Rational People not closet Paki-Applogists. Sorry to say.

If Nato/America attacked Pakistan tomarrow, I would enlist myself in the Royal Marine Commandos and train my Afghans against Pakistan.

If Pakistan can use America to kill our great leader Najibullah, if the Pakistanis can use the British to draw the Durrand line, I think its our right to use America to divide Pakistan.

[faye]

so what is stopping you now from going to fight against pakistan?
