After writing a curtain raiser for The New York Sun of yesterday’s lawyers’ rally in downtown Manhattan, I attended the rally and ended up writing this piece about it for Jewishworldreview.com. As I am learning, the issues surrounding U.S. policy towards Pakistan and particularly Gen. Pervez Musharraf at this sensitive time are extremely complex, but I cannot fail to be moved by the plight of Pakistan’s legal community and to question what arresting lawyers really has to do with fighting terrorism.

Bio
Heather Robinson is an independent journalist who specializes in writing about the Middle East, profiling offbeat characters and humanitarians (not always mutually exclusive), and helping readers happily navigate life. A committed vegetarian, she aspires to live close to the land one day, but for now enjoys living in the heart of New York City, where her reporting has included everything from a rundown of NYC’s most noteworthy dating services to the best outlets to do some good as a volunteer. In her spare time she enjoys reading, film, jogging, yoga, and imitating people.
