Bomb explodes outside KFC in Karachi

A powerful car bomb exploded outside a KFC restaurant in Pakistan's largest city, Karachi, this morning, killing at least 3 people.

Two things leapt into my mind immediately upon reading this:

1. There's KFC in Karachi, Pakistan? Why is this the kind of crap we export to the Islamic world?
2. Apparently, AQ was not involved. Instead, a seperatist group from Baluchistan (one of the semi-autonomous Pakistani provinces along the border with Afghanistan) has claimed responsibility.

There's no shortage of groups who oppose Pakistani President Musharraf, which was probably the perspective of the Baluchistan National Army (the group claiming responsibility).
