Pakistan deployed the army to protect diplomatic missions in Islamabad amid some of the most sustained and violent protests yet against an American-made film that denigrates Prophet Muhammad.
“We have to do everything we can to protect foreigners in the country,” Information Minister Qamar Zaman Kaira said in an interview with the GEO television channel, criticizing violence he said was an attempt to sabotage the government’s call for peaceful rallies tomorrow. “Is this the way to show respect to our Prophet?” Kaira said.
