in the context of pakistan and one woman and also the celebration of women in pakistan said it resonates across borders this is about legislation we got in pakistan against sexual harassment these laws were passed in 2010 and i will tell you why it was so important. one reason was after years of militancy women were being pushed back in the last decade and a half and this was the first come back and they regained their public space and their workspace so that was widely celebrated throughout the country the other reason was we had a long gap of legislation and pakistan and i don't count the small laws that modify a little something but the last progressive legislation was in the mid-50s. switch has been a very long time and now it opened of space for women so it was good for pakistan and it also opened doors for many other programs of legislation just because that magical chemistry open the doors and we were able to get seven program in legislation passed over the last few years and i was a big breakthrough for us and looking back as to how little started, that is the other part of the s

the intelligence told him not to come back to pakistan. and, of course, even influenced him in not coming back. however, this time despite advice from some of his things that things may be dangerous in pakistan, musharraf said he was willing to face the court of law and he was even willing to go to jail if necessary. so he's come back and wants to fight it out. however, this would be one disappointed man given the fact that you saw in that report he's been disqualified from all people. so a major setback for musharraf. >> that's our correspondent joining from us islamabad. thank you. egypt is facing its worst economic crisis in decades, and yet not everyone is impressed with billions of dollars pouring in from some neighboring countries. that story is coming up. plus, the drugs in west africa, find out why nigeria has becoma. >> there was just a major, major explosion. >> police in texas say an explosion at a fertilizer plant has killed as many as 15 people, as well as injuring more than 150. local emergency services are treating the victi

pakistan itself is used to feeling earthquakes. absolutely. this entire region is quite prone to seismic activity. we only have to think back to 2005 in the north of pakistan where 73,000 people were killed after a 7.6 earthquake jolted that area. that was a very horrific natural disaster. we are not hearing any indication that this earthquake was as powerful. we're not hearing any casualties yet. again, as we evincing in many parts of the country, particularly south of the country, we of heard a lot of reports of people fleeing buildings trying to find a safe areas because this earthquake was felt quite powerfully there. >> we will keep you up-to-date and keep following that for you. thank you very much. of thear bombs north iraqi capital have killed at least two people. this happens a day after coordinated blast killed -- killed 55 people. car bombs struck both areas. no one has claimed responsibility for any of the bombings. it is believed it were an attempt to destabilize the protestnt ahead of a scheduled for monday. the second of three s

the one thing is there was growing instability in pakistan which made rely on pakistan's government much more difficult. the second as we know hamid karzai in afghanistan has also been becoming more and more difficult for the united states to deal with. i think drones began to look like a very attractive way of dealing with a terrorism problem in afghanistan and in pakistan, in part because dealing with the government's was so difficult and costly to do. in a relatively short period of time we've moved from a relatively spare use of drones under the bush administration on something like 50 drone strikes were launched. >> more than 300. >> in the obama administration. in part i think due to the difficulties in the situation. and the notion it's a he is dukdive form of technology it appears to have no risk for u.s. personnel and you can do without boots on the ground. if you think about an american population increasingly war warry, about a government facing financial constraints, drones look like a low cost, low risk option to be able to deal with those problems without having to go throu

the reason is better to have al qaeda in pakistan and afghanistan is because in pakistan, they're not allied with the pakistani government. the pakistani government, while the supporting the taliban, it is not supporting al qaeda. it is prepared to give us targets that we can strike with drones, it is willing to pick out the al qaeda people. so what you dealt what ought, the problem with afghanistan, before al qaeda had aircraft three aircraft from the that states, they had hijacked the whole country and government, called afghanistan, and that is not what you want to replicate. >> anyone else? >> building on that, i totally agree. but then taking the whole surge debate in afghanistan, the argument advanced by the military was you had to build up an afghan state that was strong enough, a government strong enough with security forces strong enough to resist the return of al qaeda operatives from pakistan into afghanistan. and if we did not surge and pour in the resources, the significant elements of the cut would go back into afghanistan. i think what we have seen is that is a little b
