Not sure if this has been posted, but just woke up.

RAWALPINDI, Pakistan (CNN) -- Pakistan's former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto was assassinated Thursday outside a large gathering of her supporters where a suicide bomber also killed at least 14, doctors and a spokesman for her party said.

While Bhutto appeared to have died from bullet wounds, it was not immediately clear if she was shot or if her wounds were caused by bomb shrapnel.

President Pervez Musharraf held an emergency meeting in the hours after the death, according to state media.

Mahmud Ali Durrani, Pakistan ambassador to the United States, said Musharraf will be "announcing something" soon, likely to include a declaration of national mourning for Bhutto. He said that when he briefly spoke with Musharraf, the president "condemned these attacks."

Police warned citizens to stay home as they expected rioting to break out in city streets in reaction to the death.

Rioters burned tires and blocked roads in Karachi and other cities, police sources said. Police fired on an angry mob, killing two people, in the city of Khairpur in the Sindh province, Geo TV reported.

Police sources told CNN the bomber, who was riding a motorcycle, blew himself up near Bhutto's vehicle. VideoWatch aftermath of the attack. »

Bhutto was rushed to Rawalpindi General Hospital -- less than two miles from the bombing scene -- where doctors pronounced her dead.

Chaos erupted at the Rawalpindi hospital when former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif arrived there to pay his respects to Bhutto less than three hours after her death.

Hundreds of Bhutto supporters crammed into the entrance shouted and cried, some clutching their heads in pain and shock. Sharif called it "the saddest day" in Pakistan's history. "Something unthinkable has happened," he said.

Former Pakistan government spokesman Tariq Azim Khan said while it appeared Bhutto was shot, it was unclear if the bullet wounds to her head and neck were caused by a shooting or if it was shrapnel from the bomb. VideoWatch Benazir Bhutto obituary. »

Bhutto's husband issued a statement from his home in Dubai saying, "All I can say is we're devastated, it's a total shock."

President Bush, vacationing at his Texas ranch, has been "informed about the situation in Pakistan," said the White House. "We condemn the acts of violence which took place today in Pakistan," said a spokesman.

The number of wounded was not immediately known. However, video of the scene showed ambulances lined up to take many to hospitals.

The attack came just hours after four supporters of former Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif died when members of another political party opened fire on them at a rally near the Islamabad airport Thursday, Pakistan police said.

Several other members of Sharif's party were wounded, police said.

Bhutto, who led Paksitan from 1988 to 1990 and was the first female prime minister of any Islamic nation, was participating in the parliamentary election set for January 8, hoping for a third term.

CNN's Mohsin Naqvi, who was at the scene of both bombings, said Thursday's blast was not as powerful as that October attack.

Thursday's attacks come less than two weeks after Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf lifted an emergency declaration he said was necessary to secure his country from terrorists.

Bhutto had been critical of what she believed was a lack of effort by Musharraf's government to protect her.

Two weeks after the October assassination attempt, she wrote a commentary for CNN.com in which she questioned why Pakistan investigators refused international offers of help in finding the attackers.

"The sham investigation of the October 19 massacre and the attempt by the ruling party to politically capitalize on this catastrophe are discomforting, but do not suggest any direct involvement by General Pervez Musharraf," Bhutto wrote

In single player I wish there were less grenades. I felt like I was constantly running away from grenades and that created a cheap challange.

Otherwise I thought the campaign was amazing other than being a little short.

In multiplayer I have come to accept camping and grenades. All else was great.

what's wrong with seeing the foriegn bastards die in the hell of their own grenades?

Not really worth the trouble as far as I'm concerned. If you want to go for realism, then you could be like "Why aren't there skunks in the garbage cans?" or "Why do the cops give up on pursuing a mass murderer if he changes his clothes?"Generic_Dude

my thoughts exactly.

I understand videogames are meant for unwinding and pretending to be someone else, but wouldn't it be easier to simply paint some cardboard boxes like children and then shooting them with an airsoft gun? if you have talent, you can also imiate the cries and screams of the suffering younglings...

I'M KIDDING, wonderer.
