Nato supply: Black powder, threats sent to several embassies in Pakistan, say police
Islamabad police chief Bani Amin told AFP that embassies had received small packets containing black powder, which had been sent for laboratory analysis.
The letters said "poison" would be hidden in NATO supplies should Pakistan decide to lift a nearly six-month blockade on supplies for American and NATO troops fighting the Taliban in neighbouring Afghanistan.
Senior Pakistani security officials told AFP that the French embassy, and the Australian and British High Commissions had received suspicious packages.
"Embassies have received one sachet each. The problem is that it is in a meagre quantity and difficult even to test. It seems somebody has committed some mischief. We are sending it to a laboratory," Amin told AFP.

The pakistani mullah hold society and government by the throat, it is such a shame we do not have the backbone to wipe out these barbarians once and for all
Would be nicer if the powder was white ;)
In olden days whenever the bandits want to extract more from the traders in their caravan route, the bandits will hijack the caravan or disrupt the travel routes. Once the protection money is payed, the caravan will move on under the protection of bandits.
The US has payed protection money and the recipient has agreed to offer protection. Until the protection money is shared these kinds of skirmishes will continue.
No sweat.
