Pakistan's only Christian minister assassinated over blasphemy row!

These are our modern-day Christian martyrs!! But don't expect the imam of Canterbury or the ayatollah of Rome to condem their killings! They are hiding in their bunkers!!

Pakistan's only Christian minister Shahbaz Bhatti was shot dead today after pushing for the reform of harsh blasphemy laws that impose the death penalty for insulting Islam.

The assassination comes just a fortnight after Mr Bhatti, Minister for Minorities, said he was prepared to die for his beliefs following a series of death threats.
He claimed his faith gave him strength during a recent visit to Canada.
