Grid Coordinates, People. Think!

This paper reports that Pakistani Islamists heart broken over the death of Osama bin Laden gathered in their grief:

These were the angry scenes across Pakistan today as Muslims staged protests against the killing of Al Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden.

Hundreds of people marched through Multan, burning U.S. flags and waving placards as they warned the terrorist's death could produce many more radical figures to take his place.

It comes after crowds of weeping mourners were pictured offering funeral prayers for the Al Qaeda mastermind widely blamed for thousands of deaths at 9/11.

The pictures of sad jihadi-lovers are great. Don't get me wrong. I like a weeping Islamist as much as the next guy. But having grid coordinates for these gatherings would be much better so we can reach out to these thugs and show them what we think of their grief.

Keep this up, and Pakistanis are going to make me wonder if they are our friends and allies.
