Anger spills into Pakistan?s streets Violent protests erupted in several Pakistani cities on Monday as Muslims opposed to the U.S.-led attacks on Afghanistan?s regime took to the streets. Even as Pakistan?s military leader, Gen. Pervez Musharraf, insisted on television that the nation was behind the strikes on the Taliban, angry mobs in the northern city of Quetta clashed with police and set fire to several buildings, including the local offices of UNICEF, the U.N. agency that distributes aid to children. Violent protests also rocked the Pakistani cities of Karachi and Peshawar, and the disputed region of Kashmir and the Gaza Strip.
